Default 502 Camshaft Selection


Hello,
Looking for some input on this cam selection. I have a Gen V1 ZZ502 with aluminum heads (9.8:1 ratio) carbed. Changing out a bunch of stuff but would like some input on this camshaft if is good for a boat. Thanks for any input.

It’s 4* bigger and same lsa than the 525efi, so will work good with your cubes and compression. Study up on exhaust.

Is it a light quick boat, s barge that plows or in between ?

With dry eexhaust it would work. I'd look for 114 lsa if you have factory exhaust. Performance manifolds and tails and you can normally get away with 112 without reversion.
