    340 stock cam question

    That SPD-22 is a nice cam. More duration than the 68 340-4 speed cam but less lift. It will idle a bit more aggressively than the 340 cam but the less lift will be a bit easier on the valve train. That SPD would work fine in a 340/360 but you might not want it in a 318 unless you have a...

    MP purple cam and lifter recommended preload?

    Silly Engine Lift Plate Question

    Hard to believe a 5/16 bolt has that much strength. Multiply that by 4 and you have enough to lift a 800# engine.

    They probably came out of a old tractor pull rig. Don't offer too much. See where the guy is. He may thing a few hundred a piece is a fair price.
