Thread: New here / need cam help.

Tweet

Have 350, Brodix heads and intake, I wiped #4 exhaust valve cam lobe so need a new cam.
The cam that is in the car now, was in when I bought the car and I don't know brand or grind, {No build sheet with motor} just that it is a solid lifter and would rev to the MSD rev-limiter 7000. It was really too much for the street and that's where my 60 Vette is most of the time.
I was thinking of going to a roller cam because of the new oil not having enough zine, or at lease ISKY special oiling solid lifters, I know it will not rev as high as the old cam but I should have abit more on the lower end.
One problem is my intake is Brodix HVH1003 RPM range 4000-8000, if I put in a more street friendly cam, how bad will my intake hurt me?
When I'm on the highway doing 75 I'm only taching about 1900rpm, have TKO-600 and 3:70 gears
Have not taken her apart yet so I still don't know what cam is in her. Motor was built for reving, Scorpion 1.5 roller rockers and valve train stud girdles.
Thanks for any help....... Jack
