hot cam

I was flipping thro the sdpc catalog and saw a pacage deal (#24502586 part number)with a a .492/492 .218/218 (lt4 cam) i think valve springs, retainers,locks,spring shims, 1.6 alum. roller rockers would that be to radical of a cam for a lo3??? i plan on makeing mine a 335 stroker from power house and a haveing the heads opened up??? with new headers and borla ex.

That cam isn't to radical, at one time I ran a 222/226 .470 lift cam in a totally stock 350, It ran great. If you run some good heads, or ported stock heads, and aftermarket intake the cam should fit pretty good. In my opion the cams lob seperation plays a major role, the smaller the number (eg: 108) you make less low end torque, but more high end horse power. And say the cam is 114 deg you make good tourque but less top end power do to having no intake/exhaust overlap. Whats the lob on this cam?

Great cam!

With the 1.6 rockers, the lift is .525"/.525", FYI.
