454 4L80 Swap

The warped cams were for an AMC probably not a real big demand so they probably warped under the weight of dust they collected on the shelf

I have yet to order a cam for the stroker build, so hell, I may give them a call and see what they say. I'm up for trying new. This will be my first roller motor to build, so might as well go all out.

They are by no means cheap and hell depending on shipping I might be able to save you a few bucks and more over if you send me a detailed list of what you want I could have my engine guy call him probably save some more money that way too as he deals with them pretty much exclusively and for some wild **** like .900” + lift stuff

 

[OkieFishMan]

Whoooweeee! .900+ lift is serious. Those are the cams that speak to a fella!! lol

I'll keep that in mind Honky Kong! Thanks!

Theres gotta be some kind of "do you even lift bro" joke in there somewhere somehow.

My cams lift is only .580 lol but a .900” lift cam is odd looking lol

If you're going carbed 454 and 4L80E, I'd just run a Microsquirt trans controller. 425.00 and fully standalone.

Stock rocker arm ratio?
I've been meaning to PM you, wondering what your cam specs are and describe the powerband your truck delivers. 496 right? Auto?

C'mon @Honky Kong jr spill the beans. Enlighten us on your engine. It sounds like a sweet setup. I'm putting together my 496 package now, and insight is much appreciated.

It’s a 407 guys. Lol when this one blows then I’m gonna build the tall deck. Cam specks as follows...
Intake duration [email protected] .560 lift
Exhaust duration [email protected] .580 lift
110 lobe separation intake centerline 106
7/16 chromoly push rods
Stamped roller tip rockers
3200-6200 it’s a retro fit roller out of the box XR300HR
10.5:1 compression ported big oval 96cc heads
Forged domed pistons(I didn’t build the bottom end)
Forged L78 crank
Majorly opened up Perfomer 2.0 with a 3/4” open spacer
Locked billet HEI timing depends on fuel quality
750 double pumper with all the choke **** surgically removed off the top
NGK plugs
3000stall converter
Th400 with a Transgo 400 1-2 kit
I think that’s it I’m not hiding anything lol it’s nothing super special it just sounds it lol. I’ve never driven anything with this engine in it to know how it’s gonna act. The trans was in my 67 Chevelle super solid shifting chirped 2nd. The engine was too but the hydraulic flat tapper cam started to eat it’s self so I pulled the engine for a few upgrades and sold it as a roller.
