Maybe leaving a stock cam in the block will solve the oil pump, fuel pump and distributor drive problems. The tensioner and drive may be adaptable from the Sprint engine.



Yep, it would definately present some challenges. Also a longer cam drive belt too. Can't be any harder than welding 2 SBC heads together and fabbing all the items together to make that hybrid head mod work.
