hahahahaha, yeah right. I'll be running a 300 shot with my stock engine yo. man those engines are the shizzle.

You need to read alot before saying something stupid like that. You want to run a shot of 150+ but you don't know how to choose a cam? That deserve the noob award of the day.

Also, I say BS to everything else you said AND what you'll say.

Warren, you'll get no help with an attitude like that... Nevermind, here's some advice:
1) Learn to use the search function and help yourself.
2) We're not psychics here (at least I'm not), so we can't tell you what cam to get for your mystery engine, nor can we magically know what kind of powerband you want to run, or how the car will be used.
Having said that, I'll take a shot: try this one

Ignore that guy..
All he does is criticize.
You need to stay mild, because of the stock computer, but cams are a great idea for your car.
Stay close to 200 duration (at .050" lift) and about .375" lift.
Much more than that, and you will probably have code/rich running problems
You don't need to spend alot of money. There are reasonably priced cams out there, less than $300/set.
That link is for an iron duke cam, not a 2.4

No ish. As I clearly stated, he had given us no info as to what engine he was buying 'a cam' for. I was being sarcastic in recommending a cam for an engine he clearly didn't have.
Warren, just to make sure you don't do something incredibly stupid, you do realize you have 2 cams, right? And don't be digging through your block trying to find them lol.
Just so I add something somewhat positive to this thread, try looking at the 'secret cam swap' sticky at the top of the forum. Since you STILL haven't stated what you were looking for from this engine, these will probably suit your purposes.
