Hey i got a 1983 convertable 5.0 4 lug car, this is a non roller motor correct? The plan for the motor is a RPM air gap intake, edelbrock carb 750 Porting the stock heads for sure till i can get some better ones, its going to be a 347 stroker as well snorting through long tubes, an off road H and flowmasters. Definitly want a beefy cam what might suit it well Since it will have nitrous would a nitrous cam be better? Its a 5 speed too

Definitly converting to 5 lug as well

best suggestion is to phone comp cams tech line or isky or edelbrock or holley or whichever brand of cam you want and give them the info on your car/motor and they will recommend the cam that will work best.
