Title: RE: Cam Question
hi, i never did anything else, every time u get a regrind/new cam you dont have to always change the rockers etc......
 
 i have never had a problem  with lash pads etc, ivan tighe said i didnt have to change  any thing. and  how my engine was performing on the dyno, yes the cam did make a difference.
 
 one thing you have to check out  on high lift cams is to make sure the valve collets dont pinch the  seal or touch the valve guide, if it does touch the guide all ya do is get a grinder and carefully lop a little of the top of each guide.  i know this is  different, but i did up a hemi 6 and ran  a 272@050  thou,  with a radically shaved head , and about 560 lift  with no problem at all, and i did nt have to change any thing, i did put roller rocker s on it  only cause th ehemi ones are prone to cracking.

Did it make any difference?  I thought the std cam was pretty good.  What else did you need to replace to get the new cam to work?
