    cam change out

    I am marinizing a Ford 302 from a 1978 pickup truck and putting it into a Shamrock that had a 302 in it, do I have to change the cam out? Not sure if the cam in the Shamrockis the right one, the engine was missing too many parts to make it run, that is why we decided to swap out.
