lsa on the cam?

so far looks like itll work, but you wont see 280, prolly more like 250-270 just going off of what i know

diff valve springs/locks/retainers atleast, RRs would be a good idea along w. pushrods

get the heads cut for dual valve springs and screw in studs/guideplates if you wanna run RRs

you can give it a try the most it would do is not idle well.
