Re: Looking for cam selection help



I called Hughes yesterday - Dave answered the phone and talked to me for about 30 minutes ... wonderful experience. He's going to work with me to figure all this stuff out.

Thanks so much for everyone's suggestions!

I would suggest holding off on the cam selection until you find out what your going to end up with for CR (pistons),,,, your gearing, tire size, and total weight are also considerations that need to go into cam selection.
   413 pistons are not everywhere, and usually more expensive than 383-400-440, I believe that some have found it cheaper to have block sonic checked and bored to 440 specs.

I'm rebuilding a 413 and am looking for some help selecting a cam.

Muscle Motors did their race-prep service on the block, bored it .030 over.

The 452 heads have been prepped by a local machine shop - milled the heads, new valve guides, hardened seats.

Looking for a mild street cam as this is a daily driver during the nice weather months with an occasional trip down the track.

I also need to find some pistons ( or have some built ) - help with that process would also be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
