Now for my cam question. I have been checking CL because you never know what someone could be selling.

No clue on the gasket. it was ported when the guy i bought them from bought them.

Will that cam be good for 300+ hp.

He is wanting $150 for the cam new, lifters new, stock oil pump new, double roller gears and chain new, and some msc gaskets.
