got a 440 out a 77 van camper 40k on it i pulled it apart and its really clean inside im planning on throwing it back together and running it like that but id like to run a new cam and a new intake and carb not really lookin at spending alot of coin due to talks of furlough at my work so just want your guys opinions on a decent cam thank you
I would call Dwayne Porter. Be very clear on what you have, and what you want, and he'll get you what is best.
If I was picking a cam based on what I think you are looking for, I would consider a newer style cam lobe ( like a Comp HE) that is similar to the factory cam, but with a tighter LSA. In the 262° to 268° degrees on the intake. Keep the factory intake manifold :Twocents:
With a low comp 440 you dont want a cam thats going to blled off to much cylinder pressure as you already are lacking.
Very few can actually pic a cam thats best for your set up. Its not just about lift #s vs cyl head flow. You probably know this. There are some cam gurus that for a small fee you send them your set up right down to gear and tire size and they will pick a cam. Well spent $ as a cam usually is the make it or break it piece.
Best cam choice is an on-going job with real income and money in the bank.
Just looking out for you. :angel:
