i need cam ideas for a pump gas 355 that will get me the most power possible looking for well over 500 more like 575 600 + but i need it to be able to be street able doesn't have to be great on the street just enough to manage looking for one helluva street car
any ideas throw them at me
thanks Logan
will have 10-10.5 :1
pro comp heads ( i know but im on a budget)
scat 9000 crank
forged i beam rods
will turn it to 7,000 or more when im racing i know the limits scat has on the crank but if she blows she blows that racing
build it,break it, fix it and repeat

The pro comp heads will be the limiting horsepower factor in your build.
Solid roller or hydraulic roller?

600 HP out of a 355 with 10-1 compression and a cast crank? 500 HP is pushing it. And you won't get to that without juice. And 7000 RPM? Why build something that you are going to blow up? Not very smart for your budget. Shoot for a real HP #.
