not sure what the bvw is but i think you would like the 110 cam with 1.25 rockers better than the 120 cam from all the questions ive asked and researched and just like chris said you need the line bore and thrust checked on your block before putting it all together and the block will also need to be clearanced the the stoker crank also but think the cam will clear in a 2276 without any clearanceing

I like cbperformance or Scat. I have personally been disappointed with the quality of EMPI.

Many people like EMPI but I am staying away from them.
