Cam for a 1969 442
I need help finding a replacement cam for my 1969 olds 442 with 400 ci 325 hp engine with type c iron heads. It has 10.5:1 cr, automatic tranny with standard stall, A/C, and power boost brakes. Tires are 225/70/14 with highway gears. I would like to run pump grade gas 93 octane but not against using a octane booster. It is a convertible so it would be driven a lot in the summer. I called up Mondello and they recommend JM-18-20 with their lifters and valve springs and a Tr-252 timing chain set. Comp Cam recommends Magnum 270H. Would like the car 2b still fun to drive smoke wheels at light etc. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
That Mondello cam tends to be noisy, I know I had one.
Intake? Headers?
For your compression and a stock combo I'd do an Erson Hi flow 1 on a 112. That'll give you tone but still drive well. it'll also work with your stock valvetrain.
Let me know if I can help any further. Thanks.

Thanks, car has factory intake with Quadrajet 4bbl and no headers. Looked on their site and they list chevy, amc, ford, buick & caddy cams I will call them up and see what they recommend.
now that some people opened my eyes to Mondello look at the part you want and then you can find it at the original manufactures website for less. there was $150 mark up on my head gasket. the cam i didnt call in for the price
