What would be a recommended cam for a 276 flatty with fuel injection. going into a 50 Ford pickup Thanks Bill
 
I can't help you with the question but please post photo's of that project when done. I'd really enjoy looking at that!
 
I will be just building the shortblock then shipping to customer. I am rather interested as to what they will do as well.
 
Intended use?
What sort of injection?
Trans?
Axle ratio?
tyre size?
Genuine final expectation?
Lopey idle but smooth driving?
Smooth idle?
Just after sound?
I could go on, you need all the possible information, to recommend a cam. No amount of info is to much.
Without enough info, you might aswell wright the name of every known cam on a sheet of paper and Chuck a dart at it.

I called and talked to Jerry at Schneider's Cams, told him what will be in the engine and what fuel injection, how it will be used, what it will be going in and he told me the cam he would use. Listened to him and have been very happy with it.

Bubba, if only it was that easy. But it ain't, you need all the info you can get to recommend the right cam.
That would be like you just building all sbc-Flathead ignitions with the same advance curve irrespective of the questions I mentioned. A properly selected cam can make the difference in the same way a properly tailored advance curve.
