camshaft time
really looking hard at a 188 hamilton cam. what other things would you modify as far as valve train with a new cam install? i run a 160 pump with 4k springs and 60lbs valve springs. are billet reatainers and 110 or 165 springs really needed what about HD pushrods? deffinatly want the truck to stay together but dont want to invest in over kill if i really dont need to.
hp goals are 500's with a 62mm charger and 5x12's
thanks

Im with Ryan! Colt stage 3 cam. I love mine and everyone ive sold customers have loved. You could do bigger springs but you should be fine with the 60lbs you got. Or go with Industrial Injections 150 lb springs. The pushrods I would leave stock because they will bend before some hard part breaks which will be a easier fix.

alright,
why do you guys lean towards the 181 vrs the 188 the 181
should i steer clear of a regrind or is there nothing to worry about? For what your doing a regrind will be fine
do i need 24 valve lifters For what your doing no, but I was thought if you change the cam you need to change the lifters. if you do go with the 24v ($75 + core)
do i need a billet cam retainer its cheep ($25) insurance so yes
and a price quote on this stuff would be swell
thanks guys this is very nice info, appreciate it
