I don't have the cam card for the cam otherwise I'd stick it in however
the card says. Anyone know where should degree it at?

Current combo is:
Edelbrock 6037's (old style) with 2.02 valves
Holley Systemax II intake
75mm MAF 70 MM TB & Spacer
1-5/8ths shorties with 2-1/2" OR exhuast
1.7 roller rockers

I'm looking for max power to occur right at 5800-6000 RPM,
I'm going to spin it up to 6300 RPM.

TIA
Mike
 
what gears are you running? i think that really determines how much you can advance the cam. you advance the cam 1 degree and the power band moves up like 100 rpms or around there. but if you cant keep the engine in the power band youre screwed.

i just looked at the cam specs for the f-303 and it says it makes peak power hp at 6000....and peak torque at 2800. so id just say leave it straight up
