Too many variables left blank to really answer that. What else is done to the engine? Headers? Injectors? Roller rockers? Any work done to the heads?

...generic answer old outdated cam, better cams available.....go custom.

Now judging from your sig 331 with P heads. I would first recommend those heads although budget friendly, for a 331 you're going to bottle neck The cam is not too much for that combo, the spings should be upgraded to accommodate the extra lift.

>>>>>>>>>""""""""" Please verify the PVC always especially on a stroker.""""""""""""""<<<<<<<<<<< .

Also, I can't remember if that cam plays nice with the 94/95 computers without a tune. I know my x cam didn't and the b cam split the block, I recommend calling COMP, FTi, or Anderson Cams.to really get the best bang for your buck unless the f cam is cheap.

Not too much but not my first or 10th choice. You've received solid advice so far

Call Ed at FTI for his cam and spring recommendation, or if you want an OTS cam, I'd look at Crane or Anderson and whatever springs they recommend.

My B cam was so powerful it threw my fan into the radiator while trying to jump to warp speed. But it might have been the flux capacitor.

Op that cam "should" work but like stated above you always have to check ptv clearance. The Anderson N41 is a popular GT40 cam option.

If this is something your throwing together to have fun - any Anderson cam should do the trick . They were kind of designed around the tried and true gt40 setup IIRC.

If your a bit more serious and want the most potential my vote goes for a custom cam from Brian Freezy . Hands down .

That's awesome to hear. He was a good guy to deal with and has a superior reputation. I wouldn't hesitate to do business with him again. Was he racing or just hanging out?

F303 cam ain't a bad cam. I have one in my car. Great mids and highs. Bit lazy in the low end though

Same thing with the e303 don't get me wrong there would have been better options out there but it made for a nice street car build. To fix the low end issue I just added the positive displacement supercharger

I don't even know why we are talking f can when everyone knows the b cam is the one to have. I hear there's a guy on an LS forum that is trying to retro one into his block.

You have to wait to accumulate enough baby Jesus tears and unicorn dust to make B cam. It takes months.

What year car/computer? Changing MAF? Fuel system? If it's a fox body MAF car, it should run ok(might need to adjust a few things).

Yeah, you're probably going to have an issue,unfortunately. Is that a stock torque converter/trans? What rear gear do you have? If these are all stock...going to have some more issues. Car isn't going to run very good at all.
