cam ??????

my brother got a good deal om a hpe s cam ,it's a 238/242 on 112 . would this cam be to big for his 4.8. he wil be getting supporting mods like stall ,gears , and a tune, he has a scsb . what are your opinions on this. thanx

your gonna need some good flowing heads and longtubes for a cam like that, plus a fuel system upgrade.

better hunt down a 3400+ stall.....

in other words, chop that ''.'' out of there and weld in a ''0'' add forged in front of that, and you'll have no problems out of that camshaft, i.e. ''forged 408ci''

WAY too big for a 4.8...that's WAY too big for a 6.0 unless I had great heads and it would still be on the edge of what I would use then.

Yea that's a pretty stout little cam

Yes, its big...but Jeff ran an ASA Hot Cam in his 4.8L ECSB. The ASA Hot Cam is 226/236 .525/.525 110LSA. It ran well. It needs at least a 3400 stall though.

well he wants to install it over the long weekend next week . let's see how it go's ,if it doesn't work it's going up for sale .

it'll take a 4k + stall to be affective, plus some huge flowing heads, it will work fine in a 6.0 with supporting mods.if not mistaken he may run into some PTV clearances, what kind of lift does it have?

605/609
