[WANTED] Looking for a hotter hyd roller cam for a 5.2 magnum

Try Utawsome first if looking for new. Magnum engines is pretty much ALL they do & since they were introduced in the early 90s. Marty & his staff will point you in the right direction. They know a lot about Magnums. Try Hughes Engines also.

I looked into there's cams, seems like they'd be nasty lol but I can't seem to get ahold of them, no phone number and no response via email
 
Make sure you inspect the heads for retainer to guide clearance going with that much lift.

They usually reply by e-mail & may take a couple days to get back to you. They are a small outfit but Marty himself, his daughter or an employee WILL get back to you. The knowledge they have about these Magnum motors will be worth the few days wait.
 
You can also call Oregon Cams. They can grind you one from the catalogue or per your specs from their cores or they can regrind your old cam if it has the appropriate material on your cam to meet the intended lift and duration specs you are looking for.

Yea iv called em, they said basically $250 for a roller cam, but they won't know what they can do with it until they have it in there possession, guess they gotta go off the center circle or something like that?
 
Correct. They can only change the combination of lift, duration and lobe separation angle so much on an existing cam. It you were
To send the stock cam, they should be able to give you an order of magnitude based on what they have been able to do in the past with the stock cam.
 
I know Oregon Cams can take a stock 5.2 cam to 212/220 .485 / .506 (1.6 rocker ratio) with 110 LSA. I have one, it's their #1280 grind. I'm very happy with the power. I used the Hughes magnum spring kit, Magnum air gap intake, and headers. After machining heads, deck, cam and a thin head gasket I needed 6.925" push rods.
