Whats up fellas... been reading a **** load of cam thread cause im about to throw a little cam in my daily... But i still have a few questions that i cant seem to find the answers for...

Right now im looking into the 212 218 low lift comp... Im not wanting a big cam because i dont plan on running a stall... I tow quite a bit with it plus i live 30 miles from my work... i need all the gas mileage i can get...

But here is my question...

What are the pros and cons to a low lift/ high lift cam... Ive got the replace the springs anyway so I could easily upgrade them to accept the high lift... Is there something im missing somewhere that makes the low lift a better choice...

My truck right now has a CIA, magnaflow spun cats, flowmaster 50 and a vette servo in the tranny... My plans for it after the cam is to add some long tubes and who knows what after that...

any info is greatly appreciated!!

nobody??

 

I had that cam and it was alright... Your gonna want a stall with it, unless its going in a 6.0. I think that a converter should be your first mod! Then cam it later when the converter fun wears off. So many people do it backwards nowadays. If you get the right converter you can tow with it just fine. And it locks on the Highway so mileage will not be affected...

 

its not that nobody know it just that this question is asked perty offten and some folk are a little tired of answering it !
but im with MPFD do the converter first then the cam ! the converter is lots of fun i think i enjoy playing with the verter then actually feeling the pull of the cam ! a buddy of mine did a truetrac rear end like all of us !and just did a 3200 circle d on his scsb 5.3 and his having a blast he did a so his loving the flash of the verter its been about 2 months now and hi feels his ready for a cam so he just bought 1 of a member last week !
n-e ways good luck with the build !
