Hello every one. I have a 1989 Camaro RS automatic. It has a 305 in it but the rings are shot in it. My grandfather past away and I got the car. So here are my thoughts. I have a mid 70's 4 bolt main 350.I am going to bore it .030 over. I want to put a good set of rods with some keith black flat top hypereutectic pistons, around a 500 lift cam, a set of heads with 202 intake valve with a 1.6ratio roller rocker arms, roller lifters, and a nice intake carb set up. What do you guys think. I do have one question, do you have to use a roller cam in order to use roller lifters and rockers. Also please feel free to give me some advice.
Thanks,
Justin

You have to use roller lifters on a roller cam, but you do not have to use roller rockers. This should be a nice street motor.

i also have the same swap as you, i have a 1976 sb in my 87 camaro. my advice is if ur gonna have a roller cam, spend the extra money on roller rockers too, they may be a little expensive, but that motor will run forever. um, what i can tell you, is you are very limited for under hood space. the only reason i can fit my aircleaner and edelbrock carb is i have a very low-rise intake manifold. unless you were to buy a cowl hood, u have pretty much no hood clearence. another thing i can tell you is you cant have true dual exhaust unless you would cut up the body to do it. i currently have a single 3 inch and will soon have a dynomax bullet on it. you can always have one 3 inch, and have it break into duals at the muffler. i might as well say that ur description is pretty damn close to my motor, so if you have any other questions about it, i may be able to help.

Sounds like a good combo. I suggest looking into the Vortec heads if you are on a budget, if have the dough then go for a set of nice aluminum ones from a good company like AFR, Brodix or Edelbrock. Remember to match the cam and torque converter and rear gears, the company tech lines can help with this.

Sounds like my engine. Just got it back. Need to assemble it. It is now a 355 w/ a holley 750 double pumper. should put out around 35-400hp
