    I am currently running the FMS E303 cam in my 347 and it is a pretty good running cam but I will be switching to the COMP Cams 35-522-8. It has almost a tenth of an inch more lift then the E cam and should put me much closer to 400 RWHP I am hoping for. Most of the parts I am using are listed in my sig below.

    I built my car mostly for weekend fun, I am not really a race guy but I do enjoy having the power when it is needed

    I'm using the comp cam xe274hr .555 .565 lift. I love the performance of it. It ran 89mph on the 1/8th. Pulls HARD after 4k rpm.

    Those heads are going to choke that motor. Get a custom cam. You have to feed the motor. A cam cut for a 302 is not the answer.

    I think those heads are going to choke the motor only if you're going for big numbers upstairs and lots of rpm. Keep the lift under .550 and the duration @ .050 under 230 degrees and you'll be fine. The rod ratio of most stoker motor combos isn't condusive to lots of rpm anyway. Use something like Comp Cams's Cam Help if you really want an exacting recommendation.
