My uncle is building a 265 i give him for his 4-door 55 chevy,, he just got done building this thing last night,
but for some reason i was looking on Jegs web site about cams, and every cam in there said for a 265 you have too cut a curve in the rear cam journal and if you dont the motor wont get any oil to the top end??? we didnt do that, last night was the first i heard of it... Has anyone else built a 265 or know anything about cutting a curve in the cam? thanks

Yeap,, i guess the motor has to be pulled back apart, and the cam taken to the shop to get a machine grove in it,,, I called the guys at Danchuk and they said it most be done on any 1955 and 56 blocks, 57 and up you dont have too...
Learn something new ever day i guess...
