    help me pick a cam :)

    well with hopes that all my boltons will be done before the end of the summer ive been thinking a little about cams...i dont want nothing nuts but something to help get this tank moving. ive thought about a ls6 cam but for all the work id rather go a little wilder than that. i dont need some crazy lope or something that pulls to the moon this thing weighs in around 6000lbs!! so mainly i want to help get it moving so far ive got tune intake exhaust lts&ory and efans will prob be here sometime in july and im either going with a tb converter or one of circle d modded tb converters. keep in mind this thing is heavy and will occasionaly tow a car trailer with a 3100lb car on it so that needs to be kept in mind. i thought about some cams that are good with some sort of FI but i know i will not be turboin this thing anytime soon nor sc $$$$ maybe up to a 100-125shot of spray if i even did that. well thanks for the advice in advance guys.

    Some may think of another cam but a tr220 sounds good to me.

    get a stall converter about 2500 rpm first, you might not even need a cam to move that pig after that. You need a torquer cam for pulling trailers.
