Opinions wanted!!!

I need some advice choosing a cam for my upcoming H/C/I swap this summer. The car needs to pass Arizona emissions, be computer friendly, streetable, yet allow the heads and intake to make some power! I would prefer to stay with a proven, off the shelf cam.

Items I already have:
80mm Pro M mass air meter
65mm FRPP throttle body
Cobra intake-lower ported by Tmoss
24lb FRPP injectors
FRPP ceramic coated shorties
Flowmaster cat-back
255lph Walbro fuel pump
Items I need to get:
AFR 165cc stud mount 58cc heads
Pro Magnum roller rockers
Catted X or H pipe

My goal is to get a reliable, streetable 12 sec. car.

Thanks for the replies, keep 'em coming.

Would you go with 1.6 or 1.72 roller rockers with the Steeda?

 

[wytstang]

If you don't wont to worry about piston to valve clearence i say stay with 1.6 rr, 1.7 will give you more lift put you might have p/v clearence issues

ford F-cam...i'm biased though, makes good power and you can really hear the cam

Where else can you purchase the Steeda #19 cam other than Steeda? Or is there no other? dun dun dun!

Look how close the Steeda 19 and the Crower 15511 specs are.

Crower 15511, Valve Lift Intake w/1.6 rockers-.468, Valve Lift Exhaust w/1.6 rockers-.486, Duration Intake (at .050)-218, Duration Exhaust (at .050)-224, Lobe Center-114

Steeda #19, Valve Lift Intake w/1.6 rockers-.480, Valve Lift Exhaust w/1.6 rockers-.480, Duration Intake (at .050)-220, Duration Exhaust (at .050) w/1.6 rockers-226, Lobe Center-115

Will I be able to tell a difference? Which one makes more power? Thanks

Use the Crower with 1.7 rockers. They are both EEC friendly.

Use the Crower with 1.7 rockers. They are both EEC friendly.

Bingo. The duration numbers look good for both cams, but the lift numbers are lacking with both cams. The 1.7's will give the Crower the extra-umph. I'm personally not a fan of the Steeda cam for a wide variety of reasons.

Does anyone know if the Pro Magnum roller rockers come 1.7 ratio for 3.8" stud mount? If so, I cannot find them. If they don't make them can anyone recommend a quality brand that does?

Thanks again, when it comes to camshafts, I know next to nothing.
