Do you have the correct valve springs for the cam? DO the heads need any maching for the springs to fit? New pushrods, gaskets, etc.? How much stuff do you have or is it JUST the cam.I tried looking on TPIS website but it is screwed up. It goes to the catalog page and when you click on a category it just does nothing, so its hard to see what the cam needs for springs, etc.

Re: Cam Install Help Please

You should call up combination motorsports. Be sure to have your cam card handy. I'm sure they can spec you out and sell you everything youll need including gaskets. Youre probably going to end up needing a timing chain and basically refreshening the valvetrain. That means, lifters, pushrods etc. The whole 9 yards.

I'd say expect to spend ~$350
