Default Cam Question?

I want Blox cams and was wondering what would work with my setup?

LS crank and rods
b16 pistons
b16 head
skunk 2 manifold
dc sports 4-1 header
with Skunk 2 flat faced .5mm oversized valves with springs and retainers


I just want the biggest cam with out the valve to valve problems

Blox B or C, or the Pro 1 duplicate.

Youre going to have v2v issues regardless with the oversized valves.

so your saying I have that problem now and just dont know it. When would this most likely happen because when I start the car when it is cold there is a loud metal to metal noise for 3 to 5 seconds and then it goes away.

That's not your valves. You have stock cams right now, and your valves aren't THAT big.

I don't think you're gonna have a valve to valve issue, just as long as you don't spread em.

I just got to the dyno today and made 172 hp after tuning and that was just a/f. I dont have cam gears yet. I still plan on bigger cams and cam gears in the near future but I think this is a healthy start
