Got Cam?
need i say more? i want a thumpin cam and i cant find one... where/who do i go to? if anyone wants to sell me one personally PM me
EDIT: motor is 300 inline six, currently sanding down hooker headers, saving up for a Offy C 4 barrel intake, currently has Carter YF one barrel
planning on porting/polishing heads, perhaps a Valve job prolly not due to financial issues

i like comp cams, had one in my 66 bronco. it will give you a noticeable idle and good mid range power

Comp 268 has a bit of "idle". Check the exhaust sound clips and you might find one.
To get the most out of a cam or any modification, a port/polish job on the head is a must. That's the choke point on these engines.

If you are not going to DIY the p/p, check with a machine shop. You don't want to "hog" it out...just clean it up.

Yep, post 6 in that sound clip thread is my nephew's 300. I made a few youtube's of his rig, just search under my name. Dont mind my 67(the red one), it's got a stock cam. Too much bigger than a 268, and it's going to be a dog. I was going to use an Isky 280 on mine, just to have a lopey idle. I didnt care about power or mpg, I wanted the sound. My idea was to run it at the 4* advanced setting on the Cloyes timing gears to bring some low end back to it. You can get the Comp at most any auto parts store.
