im currently running a wade 1004@122 and also a chiptorque chip, i was wondering what cam people would recommend that i get (i want to stay auto and know about the problems with running a stall) i would also be looking at a 3.45 diff just to get me off the mark a little quicker

I'd be looking at crow cam's 2222519.
Its a stage 2 cam which uglybob is running in his car. I reckon its better than the 1004 wade version.

Yes, bob does have an auto.

what about the crow 2222543 cam, am running a chip so it can be setup to run a bigger cam, and that cam says its power range is from 1800 - 5500rpm which sounds ideal for an auto, has anybody been on a dyno with the crow cams
