cam question I have a 1994 Camaro Z28 with auto trans with 2400 B&M stall. Only mods to car are K&N CAI and 3.73 gears. Car currently has 206K miles. I have a wrecked 1993 Camaro Z28 that has only 115K miles. The engine from the 93 still runs but front suspension is totalled. Engine still runs strong. I wants to swap that engine to my 94 Z. But I want to upgrade to cam only. And of course supporting mods. Dont want to build for performance but really just street driver that sounds good. My choice of cam I want is the CC306 and also add PaceSetter LT with X pipe and TD's. So my question is, what all (parts) do I need to make this cam work with stock heads and what price total am I looking at for Cam, Exhaust, and anything else I would need? I dont want to spend much money.
If you aren't looking to spend alot of money, then you aren't ready to cam your car.
Cam, Roller rockers, springs, hardened pushrods, and lifters should all go in if you wanna put in a cam at that mileage.
Edit: also saw that you are wanting to do exhaust at the same time. That's gonna run the price up at least another $500, even for bottom dollar LT's, ORY, and Muffler.

There's a sticky at the top of this forum with all the answers you will need:

Not spending too much money and camming a car do not go hand it hand. It gets expensive quick when considering the costs of valve springs, locks, retainers, shims, pushrods, rockers, cam, gaskets, fluids, tuning etc. etc. Also, the cc306 is going to need more stall than a 2400, you would need to step up to atleast a 2800 and ideally a 3000+.
