Default FE Cam Specs and selection
Its' almost winter and I am pulling my engine for some maintenance and upgrades.

Maintencane: Replace all bearings and timing chain and gear. Leak down check of rings and valves showed an insignificant wear.

Upgrade: Thinking about upgrading my cam to a .605 lift and 248 duration solid lifter Comp cam GRIND #294S. OR .640 lift and 260 duration solid lifter Comp cam GRIND #306S. I am also considering new dual valve springs and solid roller lifters.

Key to any upgrades is that they maintain streetability and be useable with a 10.6 : 1 compression ratio and dual plane manifold.

Anyone out there have any thoughts or recommendations.

FYI for the last two race seasons I have been running a .571 lift 236 duration solid lifter cam and absolutely loved it but I need a few more R's.
