what cam for a 350

i have a 350 roller motor, with 305 heads, what would be a good cam with a little lope, that wont exceed the max lift on the heads, and i do plan on matching the valve springs to, also i have a set of magnum 1.52 roller rockers im gonna put on it, thanks

That has way too much lift for the heads and springs. Stick with an LT1 cam and you'll be doing fine.

my limit is i nthe .46 or .475 range for factory pull out studs ,plus that's about the limit on stock spring diameter. while you're changing springs get rid of the factory rotator and retainer and get aftermarket to match your springs.
