Default A few ?? on the hotcam

Hey guys i was wondering if you could help me out on choseing a cam. I am looking at a Hotcam (219/228) would be good for me running pacesetter LT and a cut out? Do you think that this cam is good, i am kinda worried that the split is too much on the cam. Should i go with an even split on the cam like 220/220 or 221/221 ect. Pls let me know what you think.


much thanks, matt

Its a wierd grind. SBC cam made to work in an LS1. There are many better cams out there. Id much rather have say an MTI C1 222/222 or a TR220/220. Maybe even a Comp 216/220 and they also have a 222/224 that might work for what you want. Ive never been real big on split duration cams. Either way, higher stall converter is advised.
