400 cam for for heavy highway towing
My freinds have all went the 429/460 route but I want to keep my 400. I don't want to get out of the throttle because of detonation while towing my 10000lb trailer up steep, long, western mountain passes. I know that wide open might mean 40 to 50 miles an hour in some spots. The 400 might not be perfect for this, but I want it to be as good as it can be. I am pulling my motor for rebuild and would like some cam suggestions. This is the setup I'm considering.
