What else to get
Whats else should i get when i do a head/ cam(afr 180cc & zz4 cam) swap in my car. I think i should replace the timing Chain, lifters, pushrods, and rocker arms. Anything else that should be done at the same time ?

If you have a high mileage engine, I recommend rebuilding the bottom end or buy a short block. I took apart my 305 with a little over 150,000 miles and the rings just fell apart when I removed the piston form the block. Just my opinion. By the way the lifters should be fine and can be reused if they are in good working order. WIll you be using the stock 1.5 rockers or going with 1.6?

Car has 70,000 and its lucky if it get drivien once a week(its nice not driving to work) i'll probally be going with 1.5 rr. Eventually i want to make it a 355 but thats not till i get around 100,000 miles on it so that won't be for a while. and then i'll probally change the cam again.
