Default Gonna throw this out here????

My current setup on my 11' rcsb 4.8 consists of 4.8L with obx 1 3/4" 2 1/2" collectors to a Gibson super truck dumped, built 60e with a 36-3800 stall 4.10 gears, kn intake , with a 220-220 .581 .581 112lsa cam .600 lift PAC springs and hardened Manley 7.400 pushrods.... And an ls7 90mm throttle body coming lol..... I was thinking about another cam but I wanted to get u guys advice on which cam to do ... I turn the motor 6800 rpms daily driven

Let me know what cam u guys think I should run to get some more out of this setup. Would like to keep pushrods and springs where they are, but it's what ever

More compression....... 8.8:1 is smog era small block crap, lol. Which would require milling the heads and you may as well do port work at that point.

But realistically, turbo it!

Thanks for your help, and for explaining the obvious... Anyone else have an answer for the original question...

Thanks

Agree that some milling and porting might be a good next move. Or just get a pullout shortblock

I say a set of prc 2.5 heads decked with some dope will do just right.
You may want to go to a better header, those 2.5 collectors are hurting you some vs a 3". What size cai piping are you running?
