Default Help! Where to look for budget roller cam

OK looking to go cheap on my 305 till the 383 done

now i want to know if a lt 1 cam will work in my roller 89 305? and if its worth the time to swap out

should i use my vortec heads with it? it has reg 350 center bolts on it now

or if anyone knows where i can get a decent to stout street strip roller cam let me know.

Just a question, if you are building a stroker, why would you even put a single cent into a motor you are going to toss? Or is the stroker way down the road? It just seems like a lot of work to me.....

Anyways, your cam selection is pretty limited to your heads capacity....and your computer in handling that fuel/air delivery change.

save it for the 383. roller cams are very expensive, and a budget one will probably just break or wear out quick
