something with a lobe center between a 110-114 with a lift/s between 468-530 and a RPM range of idle to 6000 will will give you a smooth to a slight lope. and Cam in those ranges would give you nice Low to mid range Power. The durations on those type cams will vary depending who you buy the cam from. But should work nicely for what your after.

I've looked everywhere I could for inline 6 chevy cams. JC Whitney sells one. Napa Auto sells a Mild Melling Torque cam. The best I could find for selection service and price are the people at Delta Camshafts in Washington State.

thanks for the suggestions.


i am putting the cam on a rebuilt engine that has never been run before. i believe that the springs are the old one. do i need anything else other than the cam and springs?

this is what i got back from deltacam:

"We can grind a cam like that for you and provide lifters with it for about $100."

"You may indeed use those lifters(meaning ones on rebuilt engine that hasn't been started), and the springs are probably ok too.
You should check the springs and make sure they are good enough for that application."

How do I check the springs. How's the price?

The springs need to be tested for The pressures for That cam Or any Other for that matter.

Sounds Good But Delta Ground me a
cam 260deg 212@.050" duration
112deg lobe centers
.480 Lift Cost $49

the 2 deg more duration higher rpm and less low rpm torque .18" more lift better torque.
110 deg lobe centers rougher idle better low end torque for $ 102.00 more Call Delta Again

Crane has a couple that might interest you.

p/n cra-210511

.467/.498 lift int/exh
248/360 adv. duration
192/204 duration @ .050
112 lobe seperation
rpm range 1000-4000

depending on what your after, they offer two more but the next one is as follows, the first would probably be ideal though.

p/n cra-213901

.498/.530 lift int/exh
260/270 adv. duration
204/216 duration @ .050
112 lobe seperation
