Camshaft

hi, i just got a 1980 Z28, it needs restoration, but once i get it started what i really want from it is performance over looks. I know it comes stock with 190 hp and 280 torque and i want to know how much hp and torque i can get out of a good camshaft?

tough one. alot of variables there, a helluva lot of variables. id say a rough overall estamate would be 10-50hp, and similar torque numbers depending on what other parts you have and other mods you make.

should be able to squeeze 305 horse out of it with a camand good exaust and an intake easily 305
ij told you can squeeze the horse per inch out of only the cam but im sce3ptical so i say cam,+ intake + exaust = 1 horse per cubic inch, and dont forget to have good injection be it injected or be it carb
if its injected probably only need exaust and cam to get the inch per horse good luck

what about if i didnt do a cam, i lust put an intake on it, made the cowl induction hood functional, removed the cats and put a header back exhaust

what about if i didnt do a cam, i just put an intake on it, made the cowl induction hood functional, removed the cats and put a header back exhaust

what if i didnt do a cam, what if i put i good intake on it, made the cowl induction hood functional, removed the cats, and put on an exhaust?

:lol2: he just posted the same thing 3 times

frickin dial up...lol

89, can you suggest a really good setup for the 305tpi? Some vortecs, i got that, what cam, tpi intake (if the stock one isn't good enough) and goodies do you suggest? I'm aim for 300rwhp.
