Default 5.3 240sx Build

Whats up guys, so as the title states I am building a 5.3 for my 95 240sx and I have a few questions, I have a 5.3 block that's getting new rod and crank bearings, and have a set of 243 heads, idealy I was going to run the TSP MS4, but I have read about people have valve issues with that head and cam combo my other option would be a comp 228R. also what style timing gear an oil pump set up would work best for a car that's going to be driven on the street a lot, im going to run a t56 in the car as well, any helpful info will be appreciated just some input from people that have built these before so I don't screw it up, thanks in advance

I think both of those cams are to big for the street.
Something like 222/228 would be my suggestion.
But...
My best advice... contact Stephen @ Cam Motion for a custom
Grind for an extra $50 get something perfect for your combo

Default Avon Timing Set

Hi Matt, I supply Crower ground cams at a good price, duration for your needs is easy when more questions are answered. (see my site Panteraefi.com)

I supply an Avon Gear timing set, the strongest and the ONLY one with "pin" Oiling Holes. The Sprockets are Steel and heat treated.

I can supply a 2010 GM Camaro OEM Oil Pump shimmed for pressure increase.

I would fit King Bearings.

Do you have an AL GEN-IV Block ?
