Where's this coming from, Jerry? The guy's asking a basic question about what cam would be good for his Buick for the street, which to me means a normal driver good for cruising around town as well as highway trips, with some decent power & torque to play a little when the mood hits. He said nothing about racing of any type, so where are you coming from or are you just jerking his chain?

80buickregal, I'd say that the info that Dave and RumRum gave you are on target, and know that the more accurate you are with the info you give, like static compression ratio, the better advice you'll get from the cam companies. Good luck with your chase, and hope you'll stick around and keep us in the loop with what you decide to run.
