cam choice

[955.0]

So i have a chance to buy a comp cam about the size of a f cam for 100 dollars should i do it? Mod list is 410 gears, rpm ii intake, unknown cam, 1.6 roller rockers,afr 165 comp heads, 24 lb injectors, 70mm throttle body and maf. How much power would you think it would make?

on the cam no none at all. Its a guy in a partss group im in on facebook. And valve spring wise i have to assume its what came with the heads as i bought the car with them installed.So im jst gonna assume its f cam specs. Also im going check it out in person so i can pull exactly what it is. Just trying to get a rough estimate before i even go so i know if im wasting my time.

Edit. I just called afr and found out the specs on my valve springs 1.290'' O.D.; .685'' I.D.
135 lbs @ 1.800''; 340 lbs. @ 1.230''
1.050'' Coil Bind
360 lbs/in Spring Rate
.600'' Max Lift*
140 lb seat

How does it run currently?

What makes you feel the cam in it now is no good?

It’s got power but honestly I want something with a little more lope. The cam that’s in it is gutless below 2500 aka the 4.10s that’s in it. The power feels like a turbo almost lol, power just hits hard at 3k and pulls to like 6800. It also needs a tune though. There’s more on the table with it. It runs super rich. I guess imma get it tuned before I decide what imma do.

Well, there ya go! Tuning will highlight the whole rpm band.

Next question, where you going to get a tune?
