Yes, you can add a camshaft to a Vortec engine, which can enhance performance by improving airflow and increasing power output. However, it’s important to select a cam that is compatible with the engine's specifications and intended use. Additionally, upgrades may require supporting modifications, such as improved valve springs, intake, and exhaust systems, to maximize performance and reliability. Always consider tuning the engine's ECU after installing a new cam for optimal performance.
You can put the Vortec in it if you have the wiring and ecm to run it. or you could use the Vortec heads and an aftermarket intake and really wake up your engine. The vortecs use a roller cam.
no the cam remains the same,
It is in the distributor.
No cam sensor. Just a crank sensor on the bottom of the timing cover
Contact their cam help for a specific recommendation.
What do you need to know about it, and what is your question. NEUTZ.
It is mounted inside of the distributor under the rotor button.
For an '84 Silverado, a 350 Vortec engine would generally be a better choice compared to the 305 with a 488 cam. The 350 Vortec offers more displacement, which translates to greater torque and horsepower potential, making it more suitable for various driving conditions. Additionally, the Vortec heads provide improved airflow and efficiency, enhancing overall performance. If you're looking for a balance of power and reliability, the 350 Vortec is likely the superior option.
I have a 98 Suburban with the 5.7 vortec V8. The cam sensor is in the distributor. Remove the cap and rotor to get to the sensor. Hope this helps.
It's located in the distributor under the rotor.
The only thing special about the Vortec is the heads -bore and stroke should be the same on all 350 blocks. Cam is probably different though.
