Sorry i meant the crankshaft still asleep. Im rebuilding a 302 non HO. I am getting forged pistons bored .030 over and i was wondering if im going with forged pistions should i go with the forged steel camshaft. Would this matter at all? thanks in advance.

If you are using a stock block, there is no need to use a forged crankshaft.
