Hey i know someone who has a Comp Cams hydraulic roller cam with 210/220 .50/.510 114 lsa, do u guys think thats over kill for a 305? if it isnt i think ill get it, he's sellin it for $100, that and a set of comp cams roller rockers for $100. but ifthe cam is too much then ill just snag the rockers but id love to put a roller cam in my car but they are soo much just for the cam out of jegs. thanx guys

 

Wouldnt be a over kill at all, maybe a under kill. That will really improve your power band and help out everything.. You may have to redo the heads tho switching to that cam, always remember that in the cost.

 

yea i know about the heads, i plan on gettin world product S/R torquer heads for my 305 and they have screw in studs and i know i would need guilde plates also or get a set of self alighing rockers.

but does anyone else have any negative or positive thoughts on this cam for a 305? and dont tell me and save my money andget a 350 ill just ignore it sorry. but i would like any input for this cam for my 305. thanx guys

 

Not too much. The new heads you plan to get will take more advantage of that big cam.

 

don't forget that in order to use the roller cam in your motor you will need to use the aftermarket roller lifters (not cheap), you may be better off to just get the rockers from him and buy a GOOD flat hyd. cam from comp. for about $100.00. that way you can order the exact right cam you need and not have to compromise on the dimensions.

 

yeah i know about the lifters, i mean i wont be doin cam swaps untill next yr some time and figure if i can get this cam cheap right now and the rockers cheap, i think ill save some money and get them now. well ill contact the guy and see what kinda roller rockers they are, they are comp cams but im not sure if there the pro magnums which i wanna get. but anyone else with imput, im taking everything right now.

also there wouldnt be any machining to the block would there be if i get this cam? i just thought of that now, becuz i have a regular hyd. flat tappet cam.
