    8BA :40 over 3 3/4 stroke 8.2:1 static compression with a super charger putting out 5 pounds of boost. Looking for the best cam option for street worthy motor. Any ideas?

    I have an 8ab .125 oversize with 4 inch stroke. Twin turbos adjusted to 5 lbs. boost. A cam close to 53 Merc specs will work good on the street.
