If it was my car, i'd have some exact numbers. Cam size, bore, what type of cylinder heads, valve size etc... The LSx motors are not the same as SBC's, and can't be built the same way. I'd get some more details if i were u.

Haha, I would be looking somewhere else if they told me they were going to put in a state 2 cam. Sounds like the old school guys talking about their 3/4 racing cams which they probably never knew the specs of. Either way, good luck.

This has got disaster written all over it. Im sorry but anyone that classifies themselves as an "old school racer" is going to have a very hard time with these newer engines. Times have changed but old habits die hard. And often, not at all. It is ALOT more technical than it used to be. I would seriously reccommend NOT doing this.
