If I were to pick up this cam, what would I also need to purchase? Ie... springs, lifters? I have a 95... I believe there is some difference in some dowel pin or something like that. Is this a concern?

Edit: Would this cam be OK for a stock stalled car with 2.73s?

You should buy new valvesprings/retainers at least. You might also want 1.6 roller rockers if you want to rev past 6k and if you want a little more power. If you buy the roller rockers, you might also want to buy larger roller rocker studs and guideplates if you go with non-self-aligning roller rockers.

You would not necessarily need new lifters unless you have high miles or have reason to believe that your lifters are in bad shape. However if you want to rev over 6300 some R lifters would be a good idea.

I am pretty sure Armen bought a cam designed for a 95+ car, so you should already have the proper water pump/opti setup (you don't need to do the full opti conversion).

I would think cam this small would be just fine on a stock stalled auto.

Yes generally you want the shank portion of the rocker stud to be just under or the same level as the rocker fulcrum.
