SBC Cam Question
Hey guys,
I hope everyone is having a great Thanksgiving. I have a 23' Wellcraft Nova with the 260 Mercruiser and want to swap out the cam. I have installed a new Eldelbrock Performer intake and carb. I will be putting thru-hull exhaust on it this spring. I want to get more power and a nice lope at Idle. Can anyone out there help me pick a good over the shelf cam. I will be swapping heads in the future to a set of vortec. If you need anymore info please ask. Thanks!
Anthony

Re: SBC Cam Question
Thanks for the reply. I would love to get the specs on the cam please. I will be changing the heads to the vortec heads probably next year. My ultimate goal is 325hp out of this combonation. Any other help to reach my goal would be helpful also. Thanks again!

Unbroken,
I'm assuming there is a PM option on this board. Can you send me a message about the heads. Tell me the cc size and what size valves and specs on the springs if you be so kind. A price might be helpful too. Thanks!

Unbroken,
I got the e-mail, just need some time to go over my plan and see what else I need for the swap. I didn't read all of your e-mail about the lift and stuff, but I will finish it and get back to you. Thanks a bunch!
