do not use those cams!!!! those cams will seriously screw up your roller rocker arms crush the rocker pads. they are actually factory regrinds. i tried running the same ones you probably bought off of e-bay for 275. right? the distributor notch is not cut properly. you will have to advance your timing too much. notch your alternator and turn it 90 degrees. do not run these. they are crap.

consider that a blessing in disguise. ditch those cams before you do serious harm to your engine.
