Thread: Camshaft advice (again...)

Tweet

I have a stock 1984 454 oval port. Standard trans 4 speed (with OD) and a 3.08 rear end.

Parts ready to go onto this motor are:
1)Edelbrock performer 2.0 dual plane intake
2)Edelbrock 750 carb (1411)
3)Headers

I am looking at this cam:
Melling 22214 camshaft - Duration at .050, Int. 214, Exh. 214, Adv. duration Int. 292, Exh. 292. Valve lift Int. .502. Exh. .502, Center lobe Int. 109 Exh. 119. Characteristics-class 11-may not be computer compatible. Fair idle, good low to mid-range torque. Power range 1700-5200 RPM-HYD.

Look ok? I am just looking to freshen this engine up a bit. Street driven with the occassional holeshot or test and tune run at the track. I am thinking 5500 rpm max..? How are Melling cams and lifters?

Any advice would be great. thx guys
