You might give Engle a call too, they can grind about anything on any centers and are reasonably priced. Mumert has cams and John typical knows, and will tell you what works.

Ted, from what I learned on the lobe rake on high lift cams was too use .002 rake to avoid fatal issues with the cam lobes and lifters.

how does lobe centerline affect idle and low end power.   say 112 versus 108.

As a general rule, tightening up (making smaller) the lobe centerline makes the torque peakier or higher but the torque band itself will be within a narrower rpm range.  The wider lobe centerline on a camshaft that is otherwise identiical will typically idle smoother with an increase in manifold vacuum at idle with less lope or rumble due to a reduced overlap.  A camshaft with a narrower lobe centerline is more sensitive to how it’s degreed in versus a cam with a wider lobe centerline.

Ok, I just reread you original post. Since you have standard trans check with Mummert or TED as you can use more rough idle if you are up to it. I like the ISKy and best of all I like the full CAM kit lifters springs etc.

Kenny, I think you have to try it out, A lot of it is personal preference and what you can tolerate for street driving. Do you have an auto?

Kenny, I've got the E-4 in the 239 in the truck. For street driving, I love it. You can really feel the torque.

Thanks for the info Ted, dug around in some paperwork and found the cam card. Listed as "mechanical special-regrind #00358--S-264-C " Intake open/close 28/64, Exhaust open/close 74/18---Advertised duration 272 degrees-- duration at 0.050 Intake/Exhaust 222/222, Lift with  1:54 rockers Intake/Exhaust 0.445/0.445 seems to be a nice streetable cam with a little lope to it at idle ! Again-- Thank You for taking the time to answer my question.
