Ok guys , so after leaving the car/show swapmeet today i seen tons of new Cams!!!

Let me ask u this....what cam can i use like a mild cam with a good little thump, that i dont need to change my internals but of course get it as a kit with the lifters....without changing..rockers, springs, Push rods...and stall..

I was talking to alot of guys today that have mean rides and they all told me to go with a Comp Cam with lifter kit or Edelbrock cam with lifter kit...tHey said i can find something on. Summit or Jegs for like $130...and i can use everything else stock...thats what i really want to do....chime in and show which ones are kool...

give me a sec to try and find one.. i would think the springs would be more important than the lifters, but not sure. I know you dont want the valves rattling around
 
ok, well I havent seen anything I would want yet, but in a nut shells:

270 is the biggest you want to go without a stall (anything bigger you will need a stall and its choppy), the lift on it is 470 and exhaust 470, you will prob need springs though, but you wont need a stall...

but I like the roller cams, they have more lift though at the same duration

you need lifters with that cam too, so you would want the cam, lifters and springs that can handle that cam...
