Cam Question for 351

What do you guys think of running a hyd roller with .540 lift on the intake and .560 on the exhaust, 225@ .050(intake), 232@ .050(exhaust), with 1.6 roller rockers and 112' lobe seperation on a mass air equipped truck?

It'll work assuming the valvetrain can handle the lift and there is sufficient P-V clearance.

Would a new convertor be needed also? and if so, what kinda stall?....btw is there any place that still carries the crane 444232 or is there a similar cam still being made that would work on a speed density truck? I am also looking at a milder cam that is 204/214 @ .050 and .448"/.472" with 110 lobe seperation for a mass air truck, would that need a new convertor?

The Crane 444232 doesn't need a stall converter but the other cam you listed may.. depends where it makes power and what this motor will be pushing. I can run a dyno sim if you post all the vital specs.. displacement, heads, cam #, power adder, intake and exhaust setup.

I tried summit for the crane 444232-outta stock. The milder cam is going into a rebuild 1990 351w probably with an overbore for clean-up, double roller timing chain, edelbrock #3881, larger throttle body, hedman long-tube ceramic coated headers, 2 1/2" duals into a single 3" just before the muffler with turndown(in front of rear tires) and mass air conversion kit.

That's a nice cam for a mass air motor but skip the Edelbrock intake and TB it's not gonna get you anything with the stock heads on there.

The intake and TB are already in the garage, I had to remove it from my 393. So I put them on this 351 or they collect dust and I'd rather have the factory intake collecting dust. With the mild cam and little to nothing else done to the motor I am pretty sure the factory 19# injectors will work?

the 19lb injectors will support 300-350hp.
