Hey guys! Just a quick question..

I was looking at camshafts for my 302 and I was eye balling the Edelbrock Performer RPM (1500-6500RPM) and at the bottom (in my Summit Racing catalog) it said that adjustable valvetrain is required.. what does that mean? But on the Summit Racing Website (http://www.summitracing.com/parts/EDL-7122/) it doesn't mention it..?

What do you guys say??

Also would I be okay running the cam with stock GT40 heads or would I need to upgrade the springs? What about stock 302 heads?

You guys are the best! ;) :p

It was in a 76 F100.. its just sitting in the garage right now..
So do you think I'd be fine sticking this cam in with the stock 302 (or GT40's if I ever get around to getting them..)?

So this engine is going back into the truck?

Is the truck a 4x4? Mud truck? Street truck? Daily driver?

Just wondering what your plans for it are. Helps when picking out a cam.
