    a lot of folks like the 327/350 cams for that type of a combo, I think isky has one.
     
  3. Crane Blueprint Cam, L-79. By far the all time best street cam ever built unless you decide you want solid lifters, then the Duntov 30/30 is the way to go and crane also makes that one in a Blue print cam.

    The run between 80 and 100 dollars, depending on who you buy it from.

    I have an engine that makes a little over 400 dyno proven ponies on an
    L-79 cam. Its been in my daily for over 10 years, when I say dailey I really mean to and from everything.

    I like the Duntov 30/30 cam with solid lifters. I have one new on the shelf that'll go into my next SBC build. There was a comparable Z28 off road cam, probably everyone makes them.

    My favorite SBC hydraulic cam is the 929 (I don't remember the rest of the number, sorry) and my favorite solid is the 097. I think Crane makes Blueprinter versions of both.
