Hello i have a 87 4.3 that has been cracked manifold too. I have a 93 balance shaft 4.3 coming out of my blazer when i get my heads for my 350 from the machine shop. My real question is about reversion (i think that's the right word). I was wondering if anyone knows the specs to a marine balance shaft 4.3 cam, so i can compare to the cam out of my blazer. Or will it be just fine and am i just worrying for nothing?

Ayuh,.... Welcome Aboard,.... The cam in yer blazer motor will be just Fine,....

The threat of reversion is when yer talkin' Hot Rod cams with lotsa over-lap,.....

Even a production car motor cam is Fine,....

Boat cams are RV cams, torque down low, idle to 4800 power band,...

Thank You Bondo I have been wondering since I bought the boat 3 weeks ago. On another note i am blown away at the site and the knowledgeable people that are a part of it.
