I just picked up an 88 302 with 90K on it. I didn't come with a cam so I will need to get one. I would like something very streetable and will not be taking it to the track. I will not be boring, decking or milling. Stock heads. Decent upper and lower intake, CAI and exhaust. This is just a wild (un)educated guess but how does a B cam sound

I think the E-cam's are/were pretty popular for speed density cars. A fair number of cams will give speed density computers problems. Might want to try a search for 'speed density cam' or something similar and see what you find. Hopefully some speed density experts will chime in.

Have you concidered doing a MAF conversion. You will havee better luck with finding a cam that will work.

Yeah, I think that is the route I am going to end up running, just seems so expensive

I'd prefer to convert to mass air, but if you truely don't want to or have the money, goto http://www.50tech.com/
I hang out on their forums all the time. If anyone knows SD, they do.
Just search through the windsor tech pages and they have a bunch of speed density friendly cams.
