Looking for opinions on the roller cam that came in this 505" shortblock that I got with car. Pump gas motor with cnc stealth heads- cam is an older hughes grind: 236/242 duration .560/.570 lift 110 lsa installed at 107. Going in a street trim satellite, 3.91gears auto with 3000ish converter. I'm trying to decide whether to throw a solid in it or buy a set of roller lifters and run it. I am guessing it would run pretty good in a street car. RPM intake with nice 950ish carb

That is a great cam for the application you described. I would use PAC beehive springs part # PAC-1220. Good Luck on your build!!

That’s pretty small but you can always have it reground for just over 100 bucks. That would be a low rpm torque monster that could be driven. 👍

It ought to drive real nice on the street and be a torque monster, but it's a lot smaller than what I'd have wanted for a 500" motor. I'd pick something like that for a stock stroke street motor.

I run a Howards hydraulic roller that is very similar in lift and duration. It makes for a great street car and is pretty quick to boot!

I would run that cam and focus left over funds on optimizing traction. Since a street car seldom sees lots of rpm, torque becomes a great thing to have an excess of.

That should be a really nice street cam. The hyd roller that I have in my Coronet is roughly the same size but on 112 lobe centers for even less overlap. For your application I'd say that cam is a pretty good choice.

This is great news. Andy, did you use the Comp lifters with the Coronet motor? If not, what do you suggest for this application? I called Hughes and they suggested using the Howards they sell. Thanks to all for the advice.

I used Gaterman lifters in my engine.

thanks Andy. Just emailed them to find out where to purchase.
