cam shaft choices

[rednekracer]

I'm thinking about an engine rebuild for my 95 Z71 5.7. I'm gonna keep the TBI and would like some advice on picking a cam for this computer controlled 4x4. I want to try and build as much torque and HP as i can without changing throttle body. Any ideas or tips would be appreciated.

edelbrock makes a performance package for the tbi engines. the kit comes with aluminum heads, cam and lifters, and tbi performer intake manifold. they also supply a chip for your computor. i have used the cam from this pacage (edelbrock performer plus camshaft pn 3702) and felt a noticable difference on a stock truck.


these are the specs on this particular cam
#3702

ENGINE: CHEVY 305-350 V8 T.B.I. & LG-4

CAUTION: Use Performer-Link Timing Chain and Gear Set, #7800 . Do not use late model timing sets. They are machined in a retarded position and are not recommended for this camshaft installation. Edelbrock Performer-Link True Rolling Timing Sets feature three keyways for specific timing selection. Always use the “0” or straight-up timing marks when installing Performer-Plus camshafts with Performer-Link Timing Sets.

Use only Sure Seat Valve Springs, #5802 or 5902 Use stock ratio rocker arms only
