Bondo, reread. He asked about car smallblocks. My facts are facts. Truck smallblocks have most of what he would need. Car smallblocks would have less. That is what I said. And marine cams aren't just lift and duration, but timing and overlap as well (and probably foremost). My list is more of a "most to all of the above" rather than an "all of the above". It depends on the model. But he has a Chrysler motor anyhow and it's all moot. I have no idea what would be different between Chrysler automotive and marine engine internals.

1 ton truck engines may have the forged crank and exhaust valve rotators with stellite exhaust valves. Cars,1/2 & 3/4 ton trucks are the same other than cams which will be slightly different between cars and trucks.
