I run the socal 8460 cam. Not sure were it fits in with the others. I did have it run on a cam doctor when I got it. I might try a new cam this go around as i'm not very impressed with what I have tryed in my motor and others. Jeff

Im running the socal 3388 in mine. Thats because i had bought it before i decided to go with the stroker. I have thought about going with a more aggressive cam in the future.

You could benifit from an aggressive cam big time. You gotta let that stroker breath to make any power with it.

Wondering about if I should spend some cashola on a custom cam. My truck will be a stock turbo puller this season, and potentially going to 2.6 next year. Stock heads, I have valve springs and might go with manifolds. What are yalls thoughts on a WS cam, Its still a DD and it will hit the strip once pulling season finishs. I've got valve reliefs in the pistons fwiw.

If you are limited on turbo size I think an aftermarket cam is necessary.

I'm just now getting started on my motor build and got some stuff getting sent to a machine shop would getting my cam ground make that much difference on a 800-1000 hp build?

I put a Socal 9100 cam into my build this time around. Its made for drag racing and needs valve reliefs. Hope to hit 900s with it.

Anyone else running the 6460 socal cam? Just curious about someone else's experience with it, i have swapped a ton of parts and tried a million tunes and I'm wondering if this cam is the issue.
