    Default 383 for malibu build cam question

    i am putting together a 383 lt1 for my malibu the compression is gonna be close to 11.5 to 1 when its all done but my question is which cam would you recommend i have a 555/555 solid roller lunati cam but idk about reliability of it if i wanted to drive long distances. Normally i dont drive the car on the street all that much but i wanna change that but it still will be raced frequently

    What are the rest of the specs on that lunati cam? If your looking for a good 383 driver cam alot of people are using the COMP XFI 230/236 113lsa cam. Great street maners and makes good power.
