I'm seeking advice on a Cam Recommendation for a 454 Chevy engine. I want too use a solid cam/lifters because this engine will see allot of street time. What I have is a .030 bore forged 10.5 compression, 2 bolt block 0 deck, gassed cast crank, truck rods pressed pin w/ARP 2000 bolts, 290 semi-closed chamber oval port heads heavy ported with 2.19's/1.88 milled .030, Edelbrock Victor Jr, starting with a Holley 850 d.p. and also have a 1050. The car is a 72 Chevelle w/manual brakes, 12 point moly cage with anti-roll, heavy of course, turbo 350 with a 10" converter stalling/flash up too 4500, 12 bolt with 4.30 gear and drag radials. The car will see allot of street driving and some drag racing. The engine will also see a small hit of Nos once in awhile, up to 175. So I'm open to suggestion's on a cam grind. Also how much of a horsepower difference could their be if I decided to use a roller cam ?
