Is this cam worth the work

[dazedduster]

I got given to me a new cam and lifters the specs are
duration int / 204 exh / 214, lift int / 420 exh 442
it would be going in a stock 73 318 2 bbl witch will be upgraded
to a wieland action plus intake, eddie carb and this cam and a
billet distributor. I got them all for free and all are brand new
i just dont know if the cam is a improvement over a stock cam.

Does anyone have a stock cam specs for a 73 318

Yes an improvement, with the cam, intake and 4 bbl you will notice a nice improvement. headers and good exhaust would improve it even more.

These specs are what i found for a stock 318 replacement cam
Valve Lift -- Int."/Exh."

.372/.399​

.050" Duration -- Int./Exh.

180/192​

That's a real nice cam for a 318. I think with the other changes it would definitely be worth the extra work to install it.

GREAT cam for a stock 318. It is essentially the Edelbrock Performer.
