Cam question with stroker

Tony01GT said:

I'm planing on getting the CHP 310 stroker this winter and putting it in, in the spring. I am also sending my heads to Fox Lake for porting. My question is, I'm trying to find a cam that will rev to say 7000 rpm, and it doesn't have to be emissions legal. I was also wondering if the Comp Cams behive springs will be able to take it? When I do the swap what else should I get with them, I'm getting my heads stage two ported with ferrea over sized valves, Comp behive springs, bronze guide liners, viton seals, but what else do I need to rev so high? And will my pistons be ok, I've heard of problems with certain cams with the valves and the pistons?
Thanks~Tony

Personally the stroker is a waste of money..Spend the money else where in the car..Unless you plan on a big bore (which are cars REALLY need).The stroker is a waste..

Well, if you need more torque (which our motors need badly) the stroker is not a waste of money. My N/A/ motor put out 330 RWTQ and 297 RWHP. The stroker will not give you any more HP, but will definatelly add torque. A lot of people who spent money on a forged 4.6, are mad they did not spend it on a stroker.
