Good Morning everybody!
I am looking at getting a cam for my completely stock 350 engine in my 1978 Chevy C10 Big Ten truck. I want something that will work now, but also work with my future 383 built stroker engine with Edelbrock E-Street Cylinder Heads 5089 and Edelbrock Performer EPS intake.
Plan is to build the motor later, but in the meantime do cam, heads, intake, exhaust that will all work now and later.
1) Is the below a good cam that I can use now and in the future build?
2) Do I need or should I purchase anything else like valve springs, timing set, etc. while I am in there or is it OK to wait for that when I do heads/intake.
