Default cam swap soon

ok sorry

so i have been researching cams quite a bit, and i found that the cc503 best fits my needs, or so i think. i am having a hard time finding all the other correct parts needed for the job also. so if anyone could give me a quick list of other parts needed and a link to order them, that would be great. i know what is generally needed, but if anyone could do this for me it would help me a lot (1.6rr, pushrods, correct springs, etc,.) thanks in advance!

Cam 224/230, 112 lobe separation .525 with a 1.6rr ratio. (Could be wrong-so send the cam specs) I would need to see the cam card to be sure or see the specs somewhere else but-That cam is only slightly more aggressive than the lt4 hotcam duration wise with help on the exhaust side. The lift is the same. I have installed the lt4 hotcam with a stock top-end otherwise with good results for a mild hydraulic. If you wanted to spend the money, what you should get are 1.6 roller rockers, upgrade the studs to 7/16 for the future and get the rockers for 7/16 studs....the stock lifters will be fine, but you will need to make sure that you have proper springs rated at the right seat pressure. The recommended spring pressure for that cam I believe to be around 100 psi at installed hight, i dont remember the open lift pressure. I think the stock springs should be adequate but I can check on it if you like. You will need to measure for new pushrods, I would get hardened pushrods anyway.

stock springs will absolutely not work.

sorry, i'm just now seeing this thread.

comp cams 1305-16 for rockers

crane 10308-1 springs(if you can find them. if not, we can go from there)

you must measure your pushrod length before buying any to make sure the valvetrain geometry is in good working order. trickflow makes a good hardened pushrod.

i have some of these things if you'd be interested

if you have the afr heads you prob just want to get some rockers, pushrod and some new lifters . i also have the 305cc with dart pro 1 heads so i just went with the 1.52 rockers from comp cam. i forget off the top of my head what pushrod and lifter i used, ill have to get back to you on that one.
