[308] Cam choice for 355

U will kill the done using nitrous for skids man.

Buy a drum of it.

It really comes down to what intake manifold you have (and if your willing to change it)

As the others have said, bump up the compression, fit a decent solid bump stick and let it rev. The only thing is, if you want it to live a long healthy life at high revs it's going to cost a bit as the oil system and valve train will need some work.

It really depends on what intake manifold your running.

There shouldn't be anything other then a Single plane on it.

I really want to change the manifold and put a 4 barrel throttle body on it. But it's the missus' car and it's her money lol. If we can fit another $1k into the budget, then that may be on the cards.

If its still running banana manifold u will get better bang for buck changing the intake setup then rebuilding the motor with the wrong manifold....

 

[Not_An_Abba_Fan]

So stroking and camming with the banana manifold is pointless?

It's not pointless. But not ideal.

 

[Not_An_Abba_Fan]

OK. We'll go with what we have and then upgrade as funds permit.

yeah no point haveing a cam that gets humming at 4000rpm to only have the inlet manifold fall over soon after.ive been playing with a 304 with bananas and cam with shaved heads and port cleanup duel exhausts and it really falls on its face around 5400-5800 rpm and a 70mm throttlebody is pulling vacuam from the minute you go full throttle all the way to redline its not big enough
355 will make all of the above even worse
