Okay, I am guessing the cam you were recommended is a Lunati voodoo. I do like those cams.
Your current cam should be about 420hp@6500 404ft lb@3000

The lunati 256/262 376hp@5500 434ft lb@ 3000 you will definitely feel 30 ft lb of torque


I suggest going one bigger to the 262/268 for 384hp@6000 432ft lb@3000

That's 8hp more for only 2ft lb of torque.

The next one up is a 268/276 and it gives up another 7 ft lb of torque which you don't want.


Hope this sheds more light on it for you.
