FWIW I bought a Crower 00471 Hydraulic Roller because I had heard nothing but great things about this one for 350 builds. Just this spring I got around to rebuilding my 11:1 LT-1 motor in my 68 and used the 00471 cam with Crowers Hippo lifters, a set of mildly worked over 462 cast iron heads and a factory Z/28 intake with 4053 carb.

What an "excellent" choice in cams let me tell you. Great street manners, a broad torque curve making great power across the entire RPM range, and a real healthy sound to it that has a lot of people thinking it's bigger that it really is. Specs on the cam are as follows and I don't think anyone can go wrong with this grind in a street car. Best of both worlds when it comes to performance.

Performance level 4 - High Lift - Street/strip applications, rough idle, 2500 stall required. INT/EXH - Dur @ .050” Lift: 236°/240° RR: 1.5/1.5 Gross Lift: .555”/.559” LSA: 110° RPM: 2400 to 6000 Redline: 6500



5500 shifts during break in period
