Did 89 f-150s with 302s have roller cams in them?

Thanks

 

no, but they did have roller blocks. so if you get all the corresponding parts of a roller valvetrain (cam, lifters, dogbones, spider, dist gear, etc...) you can run a roller cam without needing any machining done to the block.

 

Thanks, I thought that was what the answer was going to be

I'm probably going to be rebuilding my uncles engine due to a blown head gasket so I'm trying to get ideas of what to do with it.

Do y'all have any suggestions on a cam recomendations??? He won't be towing with it or racing it ....He's just looking for something with a little bit of kick to it if you know what I mean.

I've heard of a lot of people putting stock 5.0 cams in thier lightnings and having good results.....would this be a good idea for this application?

He still needs to be able to pass a smog test so keep that in mind.

Also I have a 94 Lightning and I know that it is speed density so I'm assuming that the 89 is also....is this correct?

Thanks,

TTT ....any ideas?

 

You could try these guys.

if you want good cheap cam, find a stock roller cam out of a 5.0 mustang, trucks dont seem to lose any low-end torque with them and gain plenty of power at higher rpm's. plus, the roller valvetrain will make your engine run a lot smoother and you should have no problem passing emissions. by the way, yes it should be speed density.
