Default best cams? soz prob ask 1000s of times

was gonna stick a new standard cam in my motor but mite go uprated

its a standard engine/internals only mods are

GRS I/C, Zorst, ahmed bayjoo chip, 16psi

i dont really want a propa laggy cam with all the top at top end only

is there a bit of an in between?

also not one of these cams that run out after 1000 miles

or would i be best with a standard cam?

CVH 34 is a cracking cam, was really impressed with mine....the 2 i had within the space of 1500 miles that is Before everyone says i didn't fit/run it in properly i did!!!!! Just wore out very prematurely, the standard cam in there before had done 130k and looked better! If it was guaranteed to last i'd have another one tomoro, but for that reason alone i'd steer u away from one mate, i've got a newman cam and solid lifters now with no probs so far
