To tell you the truth I dont think your going to get what you want out of either of those cams based on what youve described, maybe someone else will chime in but its not just buying a big cam and making power ya you'll make power but maybe not where you want it, is this going to be more a track car or a fun cruiser?

1 you.. have to pull heads to get to lifters right? lol
2 when you pull heads you need new head gasket/bolts right? If I am wrong please correct me! but I know bolts get torqued and gasket gets compressed.. soooo thought you gotta swap em also..
3 as far as lifters go.. not about "freshness", its about "brokeness", swapping em cause I have to, already decided to do pushrods with this project.
Im just gonna put this out there,Stop acting like a dick,
You might get more help!!!! You only need 1 cam!!!!!

yessir, DD untill I sell my other car, not to long. hmm, what would you suggest as far as bigger? thought this was as big as you can go with double springs/retainers/lifters/pushrods.
