Good Cam for 69 340

-
Yeah I think the stock rockers will work too. Do like Rob said and double check the pushrod length.
 
Just pick one and run with it. lol
 
I like that Lunati cam too. That's as big as I'd go with stock rockers. I tried running stock rockers and pushrods yrs. ago in a 360 with the XE274 cam and they didn't last
 
I would'nt use the stock stamped rockers even mild performance street engines. The ratio's are less than poor. listed as a 1.5 but are really 1.41 to 1.45 leaving a lot of lift (power) on the table. a Few years ago I tested many sets and best one was 1.45 worst was 1.41 most were in the middle somewhere. Combined with the fact that the lifter is not in plane with the pushrod on small Mopars really compromises the lift in these engines. However the stock '273' adjustable rockers are a much better choice, but aftermarket is best. 1.6 ratios will give back most of the lost lift from lifter/pushrod angles . Do the math using 1.43 and you will see JMHO .

When I was planning my 340 build I was 100% set on the xe268. Plans changed when I got a great deal on a stroker. Now 340 is in the garage waiting on a home.
