Reply to "Looking for a hyd roller street cam"

The Reed cam you described is a rough idling cam with a soft bottom end. It'll have limited top end unless the exhaust system has no back-pressure. A free breathing exhaust will also improve the low rpm a bit. Its not a cam I'd ever use in a street engine. This evaluation would have been obvious to any hot rodding enthusiast in the 1960s. So no ... I'm not a guru for having determined this. I'm just willing to admit I'm a bit of a throwback.

I can offer humble help (in humility) if a high performing street cam or sports car cam is your desire. The cam will have 112 degrees to 114 degrees LSA. I know the cams work, they've been working since the 1960s. Others have discovered they work too. I can explain why they work if necessary. But honestly, I'm not into "this guy verses that guy", I don't need to prove anything. Other voices on the internet speak to people with different goals than I do. What are your goals?
