Cam to big for stock shortblock
I am looking at getting a cam and i wanted to know if this would fit in my car or if i would have piston valve clearance problems.

People have put much, much, much larger cams than that on a stock short block. I daily drive a 237/242 .603/.609 113 and others run cams that are measurably larger than that all the time.
Need more info. It will *probably* clear.

its gonna fit for sure, just like the guy before said, he gave you the specs to a texas speed magic stick v3, which is the same cam I run, which is bigger than the one your asking about. It will fit.
