Need help: Cam with H/C package is diff. than what was said in sale
I bought a H/C package from a member here, and the cam specs are different from what he had told me in the emails about it. I've contacted him to ask him his exact setup, but I was just looking for some quick help.
Basically it's a will this cam fit. I have Patriot stage 2.5 heads as well.
Here's a pic of the cam specs on the box, no cam card.
Now, I called Comp Cams and they looked up the exact specs on the cam for me given the part number and here it goes.
It's a 242/242 with .610 lift on a 1.7 rocker. LSA is 113 with +3 ground in.
The intake opens at 11 and closes at 51. The exhaust opens at 57 and closes at 5.
Thanks for the help guys.

I am gonna say the cam wont fir without flycuting.
the T rex is about as big as you can go on stock heads at 242/248 with similar lift and you dont have stock heads.
If the heads have been milled at all then you will defentially be flycuting.
What were the specs the seller gave you?
