    I'm trying to get rid of the rest of my performance Buick parts. All parts are located in St Louis MO and prices do not include shipping.

    350 Buick Cam and Lifters: I used this for about 1000 miles in a 355 Buick, it ran 12.90s in my full weight 69 Skylark. The cam is in good shape and all the lifters are in order.

    Specs:
    Gross Lift: .471 .471
    Lobe Lift: .303 .304
    Duration @.050 226 230
    Lobe September 112

    $125

    3/8 × .083 Comp Push Rods, they are 9.500 long and are in good shape. $75

    New in the box Smith Brothers pushrods. They are a 3/8 to 7/16 tapered and also 9.500 long. They were $390. $200 takes them.

    TA solid roller lifters for a 455. They all seem decent, but an at the race track thrash led to a few of the push rods being on top of the lifters and not in the cups which left indents on them. (This is shown in pictures). They would be great spares for someone to keep in the trailer just in case. $75

    I also have a few used sets of copper head gaskets. If some is interested I'll get the bore size and thickness.

    Thanks for looking and have a good day.

    Hi. I'm interested in the cam and lifters. Who is the manufacture? What would shipping be to MI 48439?

    Thanks.

    It's a comp cams cam and lifter set. I'll ball park shipping at $20 and if it's more I'll pay the difference.

    Will the lifters that are included with the cam work in a 1971 block? I just noticed you had the cam in a 1969.

    Thanks.

    I think all 350 Buick lifters are the same, some oil through the push rods and some don't. These do.

    69GS400s ...my own amusement ride!

    These are roller lifters .. meant for a roller cam and is incompatible with a stock type cam

    I read online that the 1969 lifters use a solid pushrod that has 3/8" ball end on the push rods. And the 70 and up pushrods are 5/16" tipped hollow and the lifters probably have a 5/16" cup to match with a feed hole.

    So do the lifters included with the cam have the 5/16" cup?

    Please let me know.

    Thanks.

    I have used a lot of Comp Lifters and am pretty sure they will work with either 5/16 or 3/8 push rods. I oiled through the push rods like the 1970 motors do, I actually think the 355 they were in was a 73 motor. It is a much better set up and I would recommend doing it if at all possible.

    Thanks for all the info. But I think I'll pass on the cam and lifters at this time.
