Well,
I have accepted the fact that I am stuck with a 302 (No offense to the other 302 owners), and have already put an intake, carb, and alot of other basic things on it, but it still has the stock cam. It does have a noisy lifter on it, so they should be replaced, and it has a new timing chain on it too. I also had it put on the scope the other day, and all the cylinders are runing great. My question is: Should I waste the money and time on an Edelbrock Performer RPM cam and lifter set? The $150 is not what I am worried about, it's the time to put it in... I would have to rip off the new intake, water pump, and... basically everything again....
What would you guys do? I was going to wait for this engine to die, but all the mechanics I have talked to say its a very healthy motor.
Thanks!
