New Camshaft

[JesseFixesCATs]

I'm currently rebuilding my 302 bronco engine and I'm wanting to put a new cam in it. Any recommendations on a mean cam that is pretty good. Also I'm worried that if I get a new cam I'd have to get different pistons and things like that so I'd like to be able to get a new cam and keep everything stock but of course change lifters and springs and things like that

Thanks

"Any recommendations on a mean cam that is pretty good."

Mods, of this nature, usually require changes to fuel delivery, exhaust (headers), & timing.

If not done properly, performance can be somewhat less than stock.

Pistons are not usually an issue except in HP race engines.

Hey Jesse,

The cam that is best for you is dependent on what you want to use your Bronc for.  Give the folks at Summit, or Jegs a call. Tell them what you told us, and what you want your truck to do.  They are excellent at recommending a cam, and can tell you what , if any other mods are needed.

I have found that they are truly helpful, and their info is not based on trying to upsell you.

Good Luck

"DITTO" Rons point..!  Summit & Jegs are a great source of performance info.

Also.., check me on this..., but, what about the computer..?  Doesn't it have to be "tweeked" ...?

I've heard on a lot of cams you don't have to tweet the computer and yes I will Talk to jegs and summit

Thanks for the advice

Good point on the comp. BB.  The perimeters only have to be reset if a cam is pretty "radical".
