The car is going to be used about 3 or 4 times a month for car shows and cruises during the summer months.
TH350 trans and 342 gears They also said I should use a 2000 stall although the stock one would work and to change the carb to 600 or 650 cfm edel or holly. The engine is stock 350, Edelbrock Performer RPM intake / a Quad. I called Summit Racing Tech and they really didn't sell me on it although they did recommend it was their likely choice also. I have done alot of reading about this camshaft, but i'm still undecided weather to go with it or not. I'm just about to rebuild my 350 that I have in my 77 Camaro Z28. Again, close attention to proper ring and pinion,tire diameter selection is imperative.Hi Guys, I have some questions about the Comp cam Kit CCA-K12-242-2.

Use with standard manual transmission or automatic with high stall torque converter. Cylinder head modifications would be beneficial. Headers, dual exhaust, large cfm carburetor, performance ignition and increased compression of 10.25:1 and above are required. These grinds exhibit strong mid-range to top end torque and horsepower. They have a definite lope at idle and are best suited for dual purpose hot street/drag strip, hot marine and oval track applications.
Level 4 camshafts are designed for heavily modified engines. Mild porting and larger valves will improve performance. Headers, dual exhaust, larger than stock carburetor, performance manifold and increased compression (9.5:1 to 10.5:1) are required. These profiles perform well with four-speed manual transmissions or automatic transmissions if a high stall torque converter is employed. The secret here is to pick a ring and pinion gear set and tire diameter that keeps the engine in its optimum rpm power range. These higher lift, longer duration camshafts demand close attention to rear end gearing and tire diameter combinations. Intended for performance hot street/strip and performance marine applications, these profiles have a moderate lope at idle and offer an extended rpm range with emphasis on upper bottom to top end power and a strong mid-range. Level 3 camshafts are designed for moderately modified engines. If you are uncertain as to which cam profile best suits your needs, please contact our technical support staff at 61. These camshafts works well with four-speed manual transmission. Aftermarket torque converter with slightly higher stall speed is recommended because stock factory converters do not allow the engine to provide adequate idle speed and off idle performance. Increased compression (9.5:1) is recommended for maximum output. Modifications that should accompany installation of these cams include small diameter tube headers, low restriction dual exhaust, aftermarket manifold, increased cfm carburetor and reworked or performance ignition. These camshafts provide excellent low end and mid-range power for spirited street, off road driving or mild marine applications. Works well with stock or near-stock engines and drive trains in a lightly modified street engine.
Level 2 profiles are for individuals that require more power and an extended rpm range. Intended for stock or near-stock engines and drive trains, 8.5:1 compression, 2.70 to 3.25 ring and pinion, automatic transmission with stock converter or four-speed manual transmission. Stock or small cfm carburetor, small diameter tube headers and dual exhaust are recommended for maximum benefit. High vacuum, smooth idle and maximum efficiency are characteristics of these cams. These profiles are designed to enhance throttle response and low end torque in vans, trucks, passenger cars and mild marine applications while delivering fuel efficient motoring. Level 1 indicates a good stock replacement camshaft. Please see information specific to your CID group in the more detailed product description below. This camshaft's Performance Level varies by CID group.
