Mark Kieth uses hydro rooler cams in alot of his motors as pre the threads you read. I would guess a .620- 650 lift cam with his stage3 head work done. You need to MATCH the intake,cam,heads, compression, and exhaust to get the best out of your engine. How high RPM are you going to turn? What are you going to do with the car? Run&Gun is coming up in Sept 22-25, Stop by and talk to some of the guys about your ideas. Another thing is buy a dynoslim or dyno 2000 CD and run the programs with your motor spec. Change cams and see the differents hp and tork numbers. My motor was 7 hp and 12 tork off between real dyno and program. Bigger is not always better. I am looking a cams myself for motor #2, Crane has a small hydro, 583-604, but a have found custom grinds that make more power with less lift. Something to think about. Go to the FE forum and ask those guys. Just a thought. Rick Lake
