Now I think you are getting somewhere
That cam matches better with the potential powerband you will have and the E7 style casting..
I really like the trickflow stage 1 for a budget camshaft, but I think with that cam, you are getting in the ball-park.
You may not NEED a tune, but a tune would be nice to iron out some idle and low rpm kinks that you may encounter.
Something you may want to consider, since you are going with ported E7's, more than likely, contact Thumper who knows his E7's. He has a couple older style camshafts like the one you mentioned that he likes to recommend, but I would hate to speak on their idle quality with the ECU of the sn-95 cars. Although, I know it can be done
I know you realize there are better camshafts out there like from the custom cam gurus...but for a budget, your getting there![]()
Yeah I really like the power band on this cam and the fact that it comes with new lifters for $210 at advance plus I may be able to swing a discount as my step-bro is a regional so would make it like $180 out the door tax and all. Where is the best place to get roller rockers I priced them at advance for crane 1.65:1 pedestal mounts $240 but Scorpions are cheaper on ebay new (if that is what you really get)

What I would do is run what the cam card says for that cam, which I'm sure is 1.6 with those lift numbers. The higher you get in the roller rockers, you can have valve cover clearance issues, which will need baffle trimming/removing, or even different valve covers. If you want to try 1.7's, go for it. With all the different tolerances with that camshaft, and I am not that familiar with it, it may or may not work. If you can get them locally, perhaps they will let you mock them up and install them on a cylinder and see if it provides you decent clearance.
