well i have powerheads with 1.60 exhaust,1.90 intake. and am hopefully putting an edlebrock performer intake 65mm TB 75mm MAF and 1.7 RR and full exhaust. so I was thinkin about the B cam, I only want to spend about 200 or max at 250, I want a good lobe at idle and pull form 1500-6000 or around there, so what is a good cam that has PV clearence and pretty good gas mileage, so have at it and tell what you think

I like my Trick Flow Stage one a lot. It doesn't have what I consider a big lope, but I don't know if it'll clear with 1.7's and stock pistons.
