Ok guys I'm scratching my head on this one.....I would like to know which one will work for me. I'm only looking for advice as to which one will work in a roller 331. I won't be buying a custom as this is not an option. One says 69-95 351 and the other says 63-95 289-302????? I want something with a little lope but nothing too radical. The remainder of the parts I have now are in my sig. Help???

really??? Because I've seen the FS XE274H-10 with what I believed to be roller lifters, dogbones with hold down for sale with it. I'm confused........

Does this mean you think it is hydraulic flat tappet then??

Also dont forget that the firing orders for those two cams are different. The first is for the 351w/5.0 ho firing order and the second is for the 289-302!

Good info. Is there a big difference if firing order is different. How does that work?

Anyone recommend the z303 cam or is that too big? I know someone who has one, but I just don't want something that I will lose power with or have to go crazy notching pistons.
