That's the Edelbrock cam right? I had it in my '92 and would go bigger if I did it again.

yeah thats the edelbrock. how big is safe and did it give you alot of lowend torque like it claimed?

I'm not sure how much bigger you can go, but I didn't gain alot from that cam. Go bigger!

What are the stock specs to compare it too?

 

Personally, I see waaayyyy too much duration, especially with a close 112 L.S.  But without stock specs it's kinda hard to compare.

 

Also, I don't know if you have to worry about emissions where you are at, but 112 L.S. is on the borderline of being "dirty."  I know a lot of guys around here running 112's and they pass, but they have to go to other hoops to make sure they pass.

 

Matter of fact, the cam in my LS1 is 116 to be sure I pass with ease.

 

I wouldn't call it a pansy cam though as it looks like it'd make a lot of torque with those specs.  Might not be a big HP cam though.
