302 Chevrolet?

[HarrisonTX]

Hello, I am new here... from Texas.

I have been gathering the parts for a 301/302 Chevrolet for a couple years. I finally gathered everything, and recently got all the machine work done. I have everything for the motor, except the camshaft. Im looking to go solid roller.

I have been told this website may have the advice im needing?

I dont know the exact head specs, or pistons info right now.

3'' stock crank small journal
327 Small Journal Block
PROCOMP H-beam rods
JE forged, dombed pistons
AFR 210 Eliminator Heads
Crower Solid Roller Lifters
Weiand Team-G intake

This is obviously not going to be a class motor, just something fun. When i get the specifics on my heads and pistons, is good cam advice avalible here?

This is going into a 260Z with a TKO500 transmission, and a 3.90 rear gear.

I think you should move this post to the S/SS Tech section for help with your combo.Welcome to the jungle.

MONSTER combo ! I built almost the same motor but with fuelie heads and a flat tappet solid lifter cam 14:1 pistons, and gear drive, it was an absolute animal....one of my favorite engines thing would spin 10k and never skipped a beat, and I did beat on it.

Ed... cut that out...

From running a Z/28 68 Camaro stocker in the early 80s I can tell you they need plenty deep valve reliefs and a whole lot more gear then you have, like something in the high 5 range, 3.90s aint going to cut it with a small motor. Times have changed though so maybe there are others who could give you more up to date advise

We ran a 331 with 488 gears and a 283 with 456 gears, both M-22 4 speed cars. The 331 had the "off road" Z-28 factory solid lifter cam. 525 lift and 330 advertised duration. Had to watch the tac REAL close. Get a rev limiter. Gotta have at least 411 gears. IT WILL BE FUN.
