Needing some cam advice

[jonosranger]

i dont like it but it has awesom e driveabilty. i want something that jars the ground. i have 1.7s on mine and does fine.

What dont you like about the 19 cam? According to steeda they only recommend 1.6 rocker arms with this cam.

Let me change my last statement. I spoke with steeda and they recommend the 1.7 rockers with a stock headed motor. So it looks as tho the steeda cam,1.7 RR's, gt 40 heads, 95 cobra intake, 65mm throttle body and call it a day.

Thoughts on this build? Of course supporting pieces such a springs, pushrods, timing chain will be replaced accordingly.

Not sure why Steeda would recommend 1.7's as the "stock heads" or even gt 40's don't flow any better above a .500 lift. You could probably find a "b" cam cheaper than the Steeda. The pro-products intake will flow better than the cobra, but if you already have the cobra - roll with it. Any of these parts are gonna be within a couple/few hp of eachother, so unless you're trying to get every bit out of it I would just go with what my budget allowed. Just my .02... Also, don't forget new lifters. Feel free to yell at me if I'm wrong!

The only things i have right now is a 70mm tb, full c&l 76mm cold air. professional products upper and lower and a aeromotive adj fpr. Rocker arm ratio will really all depend on what deal.i come up on. and the main thought for a steeda 19 is great driveability only for my 95. My lifters need to be replaced anyways. they have a little tap to them. oh and i still only have e7 heads at this moment

I am with Joe on the B cam.
It will sound good,drive good and work with your intended upgrades.

I'm running the pro products intake, 70mm tb, 76mm c&l (with a 24# sample tube), 24# injectors, kirban fpr, b303 cam, 1.6 rr's, gt40p heads, and stock bottom end. It has great driveability and a nice "lump" to it. Also, I'm running a 5 speed - not sure how the combo would work with an auto with stock stall...
