Cam Questions
Okay i just found out my moms friend has a cam he will give or sell to me. Im not sure of the specifics yet but i will post them tomorrow when i find out. My question is will upgrading to 1.7 rockers be as beneficial as a new cam? I know it depends on the cam specs but i just want to know in general. Also, if you install a new cam, do you have to get a new computer, or can you just reset the stock computer?

It's always good to get a tune when you change your a/f ratio....
Also, a cam in a stock motor won't be HUGE, but if you combine it with 1.7 rocker rollers, you will feel the difference.
Cam lets more air in, 1.7 rockers use it.

Yes, the e303 cam is a good "street legal" cam, meaning that it will not cause you to fail the emissions. the specs on the E303 are: Duration: 220°/220° @ .050' Lift: .498'/.498' and it retails for $165

considering the stock lift is only .442", the .498" lift combined with the 1.7 rockers should make a noticable difference. just make sure to check the piston to valve clearance so you don't run into a problem. if in doubt, use the 1.6 rockers and you should be OK.
