need a good cam and a set of springs for an l69.

i dont have any particulars for a cam just need something bigger than stock.

 

Your more then likely gonna have to call up comp cams to get a better cam for your 305.

I have a cam for sale but it is way to radical for a 305.

i have one thats around .460 lift . i bought it to go in to my 350 tpi its a roller, but im going with a big block so i dont need it. i bought it from a guy on this board. his third gen name is tommy g. you can get the specs from him on it. let me know if interested, thanks

 

must be flat tappet.

im just looking for a good used cam, the entire drivetrain is getting pulled out before the end of the year.

i have a grude race coming up and i dont want to have to dump too much money in the car to win.

i need to run a little faster than 9.8, hes running 9.9's. i need some more breathing room.

 

I don't have any Cams, just writing to wish you "Good Luck" in the race whenever it is !!!!! Go get'em.

 

comp cams XE262 is a good choice for the 305 carb engines

 

well does anybody have one for sale?!?!

 

i'd never use a used cam when new they are so cheap, only $160 for it with lifters. Don't forget all the gaskets you'll need to buy to pull out the old cam as well.

 

I have a Comp 286H with the lifters that is used and nothing is wrong with it. i also have the stock springs i removed from my AFR heads. I know the cam will fit your small block but i'm not sure how well it would work in a 305? I ran 11.98 with that cam in my 388.

$100 shipped takes cam,lifters, and springs

 

i'll look up the specs on it and get back to you.

 

I have one for sale $45 + shipping.

I got this cam for my l69 and was told this is the best cam for my 85 Firebird 305. I added headers and the thing ran really nice. Only used the cam for about 700 miles. I decided to go with some performance 601 heads, holley carb, 5 spd manual , Edelbrock intake and another cam. Here are the spec:

Basic Operating RPM Range: 1,500-4,000 RPM
Intake Duration at 050 inch Lift: 204
Exhaust Duration at 050 inch Lift: 214
Duration at 050 inch Lift: 204 int./214 exh.
Advertised Intake Duration: 262
Advertised Exhaust Duration: 272
Advertised Duration: 262 int./272 exh.
Intake Valve Lift with Factory Rocker Arm Ratio: 0.420 in.
Exhaust Valve Lift with Factory Rocker Arm Ratio: 0.442 in.
Valve Lift with Factory Rocker Arm Ratio: 0.420 int./0.442 exh. lift

I also will be having a set of 416 heads available that ran good and was replaced with performance 601 heads.

 

i think that 286 cam is a bit too big for the little stock 305.


mcbchild, ill pm you with a few more questions.

 

OK

 

If your really on a tight budget and need this Cam ASAP, may I suggest buying a Cam from Summit. They have their own brand Cam and Lifter Kit for $67.95 (On Special til April 30th)and I believe they free ship. On the mild side look into kit # SUM-K1103. I have a similar grind in my L69, its okay...Or if you have Headers and an Aftermarket intake(Edelbrock Performer #2101) I would go with Kit# SUM-K1105(similar to the CC262). Both of these Cams should be fine with your factory springs. The 1105 will give you a slightly rough idle and that cool "lumpy" sound. That would be my choice (for a quick and inexpensive solution) . Again, good luck.

 

I have a Summit branded #K1103 I'll sell for $25 plus shipping.I have the lifters {I marked them for which lobe} I don't have any springs. cam spec I .443L 214 dur. E .465L 224 dur.
