ZZ4 cam with vortec 350?

How will the ZZ4 cam sound on a vortec headed 350?
Will it have a lopey idle to it?

I know that you'll have to scrap the stock springs to handle the lift of the ZZ4 cam. People stay the stock springs will only handle .450-.480, depending on who you talk to.

You shouldn't have to much of a problem running a zz4 cam in a 350. JR305 is running a zz4 cam on a 305 with world heads with TBI. You will definetly need a chip tho.

It is a decent roller cam for a mild motor and good heads. The zz4 cam in the base 330 motor would more than likely make MORE power than the zz4 crate motor just because of the heads. It'll lope but the lift is pretty high so don't expect it to be a super simple swap with the vortec heads.
