No U don't need adj PR or stuff..

What I'd suggest is to park U rear end down and spend a little time doing some search's and reading in here so U can learn a little instead of asking someone else to do it. U need to know a little so U can figure out what Ur needs and wants are. U need this info to pick out what U think is the best cam.

I'll even help u with some links. So U can learn.

This link will give U the specs of almost all the cams U want to look at.

Another vote for the woods 555...i got the adjustable pushrods, but that was for the ease of install

What about SE 255s? Great low-mid torque I've read..Anyone? These can be found very inexpensively.

You're going to need adjustable pushrods unless your installer prefers to remove the gas tank,the rocker covers and rockers and then slide out your pushrods and reinstall them when the cams are in. Figure $150 -$200 for adjustable pushrods. I put an Andrews 26 into my 95" build and had the heads decked to get a little higher compression. I re-used my stock pushrods but when I started researching my build, most guys liked the Smith Bros or SE tapered pushrods.If you're not doing head work, maybe someone on here will recommend a cam that will give you what you want, additional low to mid range power with stock heads and compression or do a search and start reading. You're going to have to budget some money for gaskets, o-rings etc although if you're really stuffed for cash you may be able to re-use them once. You'll also need an oil change and an adjustment on your tuner. Good luck.
