230/236 XE cam on stock heads and stock stall...

It says to use the cam with aftermarket heads and stall. What would be the effect of that cam on a stock stall and stock heads.

Would the springs, lifters, rocker arms, etc. have to be changed?

It will be like eating ice cream thru a straw

will more then likely stall in drive, you'll have no power, or you will need to rev the crap out of it to take off

very true, you'll need upgraded heads, if you cannot afford it you'll need new springs, retainers, pushrods. You will definitely need a bigger stall like 3000 minimum.
When choosing a cam, remember you have to match more then just what the specs say.

Almost forgot, you'll maybe need gears too.

Not trying to sway your decision, just schooling you a little as what is involved with going with a cam like that..

Go with a cc305 and you will only need pushrods, springs, retainers, and a tune.
