The_aSSet Posted February 6, 2012 Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 I have that cam right now and love it, also has good results in 5.3's so a 5.7 would probly respond well to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I going to have to change push rods and all that. Are can I just throw the cam and springs and send computer to Wheatley and be done. I got some 918 springs. And xr265hr cam never been used. Going to send cam back are just buy that 273. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_aSSet Posted February 6, 2012 Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 I'd get some different springs those trends to not last long, try patriot gold springs. And yes you'll need pushrods as well, and a stall 3000-3400 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to have them port matched but not polished. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
