Default WTB: Cam - warning: contains the ramblings of an idiot

As some of you might have heard, I am trading my suburban for a 91 Mustang Convertible. I am putting my 06 6.0L in it. I am going to put a TH400 with a 2500-3000 stall behind it.

Does anyone have a cam they are selling, thinking of selling, or sitting on the shelf likely never to be used and should probably go ahead and sell? Not overly worried about peak performance right now, as it will mostly see weekend cruising. This will occasionally see a few passes down the local 1/8 mile or maybe run it up to BG for the Holley LSX event and run it on the 1/4 there. I would like a reasonable choppy sound just for my enjoyment.

Now that you know what I want, let me know the specs and the price shipped to me. I know I can buy one new, I would rather help someone have a little money to throw back into their toy however.

Whats the recommended stall and valve springs for that?


Will it sounds something similar to this?

HA HA!!! If I would have known you were looking for a cam, I would have just traded you straight up.

I don't know the exact mileage, but i'd estimate it at 25k. It's in good shape, and was pulled for a smaller cam.

It will sound close to that, maybe a little tamer because you'll have less compression.

For springs, i'd run PAC 1218's from Brian Tooley Racing. Can't beat them for the price. Stall rpm is a tough one. Peak torque would probably occur around 4700-5000. So for optimum performance you'd want a 4000-4500 converter. For street/strip duty a 3200-3600 would work fine.

I'm really not wanting to run that much stall in a street car. I will definitely keep this in mind though. I will give you an answer in the next few days. I am a firm believer in "first to show with money takes it", so if your wanting to sell it, I wont get my feelings hurt while making my mind.
