Okay - I am picking up a set of barely used magnum heads to replace the cracked one on my '92 Ram 5.2L. In the process, I am also picking up some barely used parts from a MP 360/380 hp crate engine including the crank, rods, pistons, camshaft and lifters. The previous owner of these parts decided he wanted more power and built an edelbrock head'd stroker. All parts have less about 100 miles on them (mostly 1/4 mile at a time I am sure).

My question is, will this camshaft work on my 318 or will it be too much for it? I don't know the status of my cam but was thinking that since I am getting it and will have the top half of my engine off, maybe I should just drop in the new cam & lifters. Or should I just save the cam & lifters to go into my 360 I will be building for my '73 Duster (which will then get it's own set of Magnum heads of course)?
 
You might need to modify the computer to account for the new cam. I take it both your 5.2 and the crate cam are rollers?
