289 cam vs 351 cam
I have an early 289 5 bolt engine that has been hopped up a bit, i know it has 351 heads and roller lifters and it also has trip 2 bbl carbs, the engine runs real strong with no problems but when i was replacing the dist cap for routine maint i noticed the firing order was 13726548 not the 15426378 that it should have been, my question is could this engine possibly have a 351 cam? i know the 13726548 firing order is for a 351 and 5.0 but is the 351 cam a direct fit in a 289, unfortunatly the po has died and i have no further info. The engine does have a heafty lope at idle.
Thankyou for any info Kenn |

Welcome to the forums.. I would ask this in the 5.0 section as it will likely get answered much quicker.

I would say you're right. All the small block cams are interchangable, and the firing order is different between the two engines.
