i have a 76 cobra ii with a 302 an im wantin to put a larger cam in it.. an im also goin to put headers on it... What size cam would be good for it i want that loply sound to it...????

Just remember with that lopey cam comes a requirement of a better intake and carb combo. I'm sure you know that but I'm surprised how many think they can get a rumpety rump sound with stock parts. With that RPM intake and 750 Holley, you'll be alright. You need a cam with about 280 duration to get into the rump rump zone. Keep the LCA (lobe centerline angle) no lower than 112 if you want drivability. More duration will raise the powerband so make sure your heads are also up to the task too. A 1 5/8 tube diameter and a 2 1/2 collector if the engine is stock/close to stock, or a 3 inch collector if it's modded. Hope that helps.

Yea im fixin to get some new jets... i rarey drive tha car an i just want tha thing to make tha most power i can.... an im thinkin about putin some 289. heads with bigger vavles.

You could just get the bigger cam and get a set of GT 40 heads for less than a $100 dollars. Then get a 351C intake made for the 302 for about $245 dollars and make yourself a BOSS 302. Theres a guy here that builds them all of the time.

well ive thought about that but ive got a rpm intake an im trying not to spend much money.... im thinkin cam an jets for rite now an maybe headers.. ...

Jegs and summit both have the cam's and jet. I would go with either a solid or roller setup since your engine is going to be about anyway. Don't forget about the lifters.

yea tha cam im thinkin bout comes with tha lifters....
