I caught a mention of this site while on thirdgen.org. I have an '82 Z-28 with crossfire injection. Drivetrain mods so far include:

upgrade from 305 to 350
Edelbrock Performer heads
COMP 252H cam (way too small, but installed for stock ECM)
full roller rockers
Hooker headers, full 3-inch exhaust, w/ hi-flo aftermarket cat
Renegade crossfire intake
2.0 inch bored throttle bodies
adjustable fuel pressure mod, currently at 18 psi
stock distributor with MSD 6 and externally mounted MSD coil
Dynamic EFI EBL engine computer
TCI Streetfighter TH-350
stock 10-bolt with posi and 3.73s (yes, it sucks driving on the highway)

Upcoming mods include cam swap and rear gear swap to 3.27s. Thoughts on cam would be very helpful.

glad you stopped by and welcome
why not ask a few of your buddies to also join/register:D

as to the cam. a lot of cross fire guys have found the crane 114132 rather well balanced and useful,
especially if used with 1.6:1 ratio roller rockers, it pulls decent to about 5500 rpm and has great lower rpm tq
personally ID keep the 373:1 rear gear,
and swap to a 200r4 trans with over drive

with a 3.73:1 rear gear and a 200r4 the 70 mph cruise rpm should be close to 2400 rpm
noticeably lower than the current cruise rpm
