I'm building a stock bottom 302 with:

Trickflow twisted wedge aluminum heads
high rev springs
trickflow stage 2 cam
1.7 trickflow rockers
trickflow lifters
cam bearings
arp studs
190lph fuel pump
24# injectors


My question is.... For my setup, is the 190 and 24#'s too much or too little? Also, I already have the arp head studs, what other bolts should I upgrade? I need a specific set of rods to match the cam/rollers? All help is good help, thanks!

I don't personally like the trick stage 2 cam but with 1.7s, stock ho pistons and the lift and duration of the cam make damn sure u check ptv

Apparently the cam is a stage 1.

What's with the "high rev" springs. Been doing some research lately and it seems a lot of people put way to much spring in. Only going to beat your valve train to shit and rob hp. Especially with a stock bottom end, you'll blow the rods out before the valves float. Just something to look into to.

1.6s compared to 1.7s won't really make too big of a difference. 24# should be just fine.
