cam advice
I'm building an 8BA street motor and I want it to have a tough ballsy cam, and also want it to be street friendly. I'm looking at the Isky 400JR but some say it's too much for my application. It's got a 3.24 bore hypermax pistons with 4" merc stroke. Offy heads and intake with dual Stroms and I'm probably gonna put a C-4 behind it. The other cam I'm looking at is the Isky 88. Anyone out there with experience in this area, I'd greatly appreciate any feedback.
Peace

Flathead Cam
I posted a more detailed reply on the Ford Restorers board. I suggest the 400jr. John

"I want it to have a tough ballsy cam, and also want it to be street friendly"
These two thoughts don't belong in the same sentence, generally speaking.PLANET EARTH, INSANE ASYLUM FOR THE UNIVERSE.

Thanks John read your post over, for some reason I am leaning toward the 400JR.
Tech if you heard my daily driver you wouldn't say that, I live in Las Vegas where the summers are over 115 degrees and my 318 idles at 700-750 rpm's and runs at 190-195 degrees. Some call it a beast and some say it sounds evil, I like it and that's what I want out of my Flathead.
Peace
Almost looks like a "Before" picture of Randy Ross' F100 that's now sporting IRS, IFS and Coyote Power!! But your cab & bed colors match! ;) Great truck!!
