Looking to rebuild my 302

Thats a pretty big cam for a street car imo. Not that you couldnt do it, I just think it wouldnt be as driver friendly.

Been researching cams, they all advertise life with stock rockers. Stock rockers vary. What rocker ratio does everyone consider stock. 1.6? I have 1.7. How do I calculate the change?

 

[Ratchet27]

I'm fairly certain stock ratio is 1.6.

I would use this to help figure out your lift with 1.7's

Comparing the Crane 2030 and 2031. 2030 seems to be more lift than the 2031, but 2031 is the one I've seen more recommended. Any suggestions?

 

[Ratchet27]

It also depends a bit on your heads. More lift isnt always a great thing if your heads cant handle it. I dont know a ton about Y303 P&P heads. Arent they some form of Gt-40 heads? If thats the case I think you might get a good deal of power by upgrading to something better, but then again its just more money.

The Crane 2030 looks alright but I'm no cam expert. Maybe you would be better off calling Crane and talking with a tech? I'm not really sure. This is part of the reason I went with Ed Curtis. Figured he would be worth the extra hundred bucks.
