Default Newbie looking for a stock replacement Cams

Hi, I have a 95 Corvette and a bad cam (#12551705)

The factory cam is no longer available.. and I am looking for a stock replacement.

Which brand has the closest specs to the factory cams?

Do I have to replace anything else besides cams?

Sorry, I am totally new to this category.

Thanks for your help in advance!

Default Cam for LT1

There are many after market cams that are closed to stock. Look at some of the parts link to your left.

A factory roller cam almost never fails. It can last 500,000 miles.
Because of this, I suggest posting an ad in the c4 parts for sale section to see if a fellow forum member has a lo-mile take out.

Ask about milage. You should be able to get one for $50. Just do a WTB ad and be specific.
