Spun a bearing this morning Well it happened to my ol 98 this morning. Spun a bearing on my way to work. Was just cruising along and holy hell what a racket it started making. Now I'm just trying to figure out what route I should go. Don't have a ton to spend, but I would like to add a lil something to it

What C.I. and compression ratio are you looking for? Do you plan to use the stock 66cc head?

Turns out it wasn't a bearing after all. Ended up being a lifter on the pass. side going down. Roller broke and also mushroomed a lil bit. Took the cam out with it.
Got it back together this past weekend. LS2 heads, Texas Speed 224-228, 581-588 on 114. Waiting on an intake and then its off to the dyno for a new tune and then to the track and see what kind of improvement there is. All I know is that this cam doesn't sound as healthy as what came out. I was told it had a TR220-220, 551-551 on 114 in it. But who knows.
