night fury cam question - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

i have a 1LE that i am putting headers/cam in and want to get a night fury cam package. but i don't know what push rod length to get?

is everything that comes in the night fury package all i need?

any help would be appreciated

I'd look into the package a little better. I know nothing about the night fury cam but I've run across a couple threads that suggest a possible issue with the springs. You might want to look thru some of the spring threads. There are guys posting that are a lot more versed in this stuff then myself

It comes with Manley 7.4 Hardend push rods

It comes with push rods that most cars need. You should measure yours just to double check. There is some talk that the PAC springs that come with the kit are too much and 'could' cause excessive wear. I had mine installed and tuned by Lethal so I can't tell you what size push rods were used for sure. I've had the cam for just over a year and more or less 10000 glorious trouble free miles. Some also claim the numbers posted are inflated but there are multiple shops who have installed/tuned the cams and are getting similar numbers. There is one member here who has had less than stellar results with his cam. I'll let him explain if he wishes.
As with all upgrades look around and get multiple points of view before deciding. I for one am very happy with my results and my wife likes hers a lot as well.

7.425 for ls3 and 7.4 for l99. You should always measure though

If you are taking it to a shop for install they will measure for you and get their hands on the right length. 7.400 should work just fine but if you are doing the install yourself, measure to be sure.

Agreed...measure to be sure...but you are making a good call with the BTR valvetrain upgrade. If u want a source for better valvetrain info...ie more situations with big cams...search on ls1tech.

Always measure and BTR springs will not let you down.
