[QUOTE="richie49, post: 200094, member: 419"] Hello everyone, I have to rebuild my engine,turn crank ect. So I have to get my parts but would like to have some help on what. 1 Are grooved cam bearings for a basicaly stock build nessary? 2 Moly or cast rings? 3 roller chain cam gear set or standard? 4 The engine will be basicaly stock except exaust is 2 1/2 pipe, intake hogged out and a cam. The cam was a #10 steath cam. It ran great but the cam was running on bad cam bearings and show a weird wear pattern on lobes ,not flat but like it was moving in and out,anyway I'm replacing the cam but would like an increase in power but not to over cam the engine.What would be a good selection? Any other suggestions welcome.I cant go with new pistons ect ,dont have enough money:(.So I need to go easy on the wallet. Richard richie49 [/QUOTE]
