yes a LT1 cam will work in a SBC you just have to grind the dowel pin down that drives the opti so it doesnt hit the timing cover. People put stock LT1 cams in TPI cars all the time.

id say go for it. it will work without any problem as long as you grind the dowel pin. That little hotcam should do pretty good in a TPI motor.

I put that cam in a 78 z28 350 old motors(non-roller blocks)the lifters were $$$ retro-lifters from speed-pro,youas far will also need a cam button to keep the cam from walking.as far as the cam dowel pin,instead of cutting it you can tap it in flush with the timing sprocket..

good point you can just tap it in. Will he need a cam button because he has a roller motor so it should have a button already right?
