Talking 503

If you are looking for a drivable street cam, then I will chime in with the others recommending the CC503. It has very good mid-range power, vacuum, easy on the valvetrain and sounds great. Would suggest the CC918 springs and hardened pushrods with the changeout.

I think EVRYONE should run a 260/272 Solid roller.


Or not

He's implying that he had the bottom end rebuilt with stock parts. Stock .030 bore pistons, stock rods, etc.

Just tell Lloyd what you have and want and he will take care of the rest. Just like calling summit and ordering a shelf cam. Just cost a lil more. But well worth it.!

Except with Lloyd, he knows his stuff and even knows alot that most dont. What AChotrod said, Call him up and he will set you up with something that you will be happy with (of course you will be happy with it, its what YOU told him you wanted).
