I'm gonna get a compucams camshaft and an Edelbrock TBI manifold soon, will this kit be all else that I need or will it even work?
It says its for an 80-85..

Thanks

 

that sounds like a kit for a regular hydraulic flat tappet cam, our cars have hydraulic rollers in them.

You have to get the ones made for 87 and up, mine said it was for 87 to 89 I think and it worked fine on my 92.

Do you happen to have the part number? I cannot find a cam change gasket kit anywhere on summit or jegs for anything newer than an 85..

 

Also, I was planning on putting in a non roller camshaft. Do you have to replace a roller cam with a roller cam? The non roller one has lifters that come with it. IT's the 2020 instead of the 2020HR.. Both are crane compucams..

 

Keep the rollers. Get a roller cam. better stuff, more lift with lesser durations (good cams, anyhow) less friction, etc... I recc COMP roller XE cams (for EFI w/112/114 lobe sep, not 110!) with the lowest durations for everyday drivers, the bigger ones for draggers.

 

speaking from a little recent experience in this matter, even if you want to change with a non roller cam, be sure to use a cam button (your 92 usues a retainer plate, wich a non-roller cam has no undercut for), because i put in a regular compucam in my 91, and the cam was nearly walking right out of the block. I replaced it with the 2031, and she runs beutifully, besides my computer wasnt reading the earlier model compucam anyways and would die at idle with the brake on
