entertaining thoughts on a couple of different cams for my my caddy 500
comp ratio is 10-1 1971 engine dual ex no headers 3.55 rear gear stock convertor for now 3100 lb car
i would not want to spin the engine much more than about 5200 to 5400 while racing
i think the smaller one may be better in my case but not shure

here are the specs
