I know, just letting you know and sometimes some SSM ones pop up. For more though. You can run a cam on stock heads...no?

Well I mean I've seen it done, and it looks relatively simple but I know its not as easy as it looks. I don't know if I would trust myself.

Cam is a bit more involved than the super charger. I'd have someone with you who has done a pushrod motor before.

Oh I forgot to tag on that if you are willing to have car down for a bit, you can port your current heads at almost any local machine shop. Or buy a set of stock heads and have them done prior to tearing your motor apart.

Depends on your local shop and their rates. I've done them for a couple hundred bucks before for just a basic "mild" port job.

My main question is can i install the cam without upgrading anything in my engine. i know it would be best to port the heads and new springs and such but i dont want to spend that type of money on my car unless a good deal comes up bc i need to replace my interior b/c or the rain from my leak.
