Is this a good street cam?

Summit TPI Cam and Lifter Kits: SUM-G5000 - summitracing.com

anyone ever use, or hear about that cam before. i guess its designed for tpis and good for around 40 hp on stock computer. would this cam be good for street or is this something better?

i wish thinking of using this with the accel SR setup. unless there is something better that delivers more power for the street.

Seeing as you have a 1989 350 with TPI you will be taking a step or two backwards with that Summit cam. That cam is a flat tappet cam kit with the lifters. Your motor came with a roller cam with about the same degree of duration.

For the money I would just look for a good used ZZ4 cam for less money and a lot more power. I have seen them for sale around $100. Some are brand new and just taken out of the ZZ4 motors. From your post I assume this is a temporary cam.
