Best 302 Cam

Looking for opinions on 302/351 camshafts....here's what I have so far

c90e 35w heads, 2.02 intake, 1.60 exhaust port/polish/valve job

Block .30 over with ford racing flattop pistons...

Bulit c6 and 3.89 rear ratio


My question is this: What is the best cam for my setup? I'm open to both hydraulic and roller opinions, to see which will create the most power for me.

comp cams recomended a 270 magnum cam with flat tappet lifters for my 302 with about the same set up, you might go to the 268 if you want more low end torque, or the 280 if you want more high end power.

What kind of vehicle are you putting it in?

Also check out the thread "best cam for 302" in both this forum and the general engine building forum.

Hope that helps

Brian
