can someone check the specs on that cam for me? id consider it a higher "mild" cam, but thats what a 305 needs. typically, i consider anything under .500 lift mild

Yeah, I know I missed pros and cons on both sides. Just reinforcing the point you made.

Pretty much any cam will change your fuel econ.. Some cams can net you better econ.. The more radical, generally, the worse your econ will be. Cams that net you mid-range power have the potential to net you more miles per gallon.

I'm big on mid-range cams myself. I know you can make more power if you go with a wilder upper-range cam, but I prefer a mild to mid grind that's ground to peak your powerband around 3500-4000 RPM.

Okay, decided to bring the thread back up, heres what i decided to get so far:
Cam:
http://www.jegs.com/webapp/wcs/store...6547_-1_313038
Throttle Body:
http://www.jegs.com/webapp/wcs/store...50758_-1_11175
Airfoil:
http://www.jegs.com/webapp/wcs/store...52203_-1_11175
Adjustable Fuel Regulator:
http://www.jegs.com/webapp/wcs/store...61135_-1_11175

I also plan on siamising the ports.

More questions:
1. Need lighter valvetrain parts such as rods, roller rockers, springs, valves..could any give me some links for these?
2. Headers, I've seen many different kinds ranging from $90-$400, im going to need the emissions so what would work best?
3. And what size injectors should I get? 19lbs/hr, 21, 23 ?

Thanks Guys
