It's hard to understand what you are even asking? lol You want to put a cam and intake on your 350. Sure why not. It is up to you.
i am/was trying to find out if it will do me any good to run that intake for a every day driver but i am thinking its a little to much for my mostly stock motor
I would nnot use that intake unless your cam does not start making power till 3000 RPM and keeps trucking till 6500 or more RPM. Other than that you are losing a ton of lower end torque that a small motor with a mild cam needs.
You definately dont want to put a Vic. Jr. on there. It will kill your power. Reallly bad. A Chevy Vic. Jr. is not much good for anything but a full race car. You dont want anything bigger than probably a RPM. A regular Performer would probably be about perfect.
RPM is the way I'd go. Thats what I did on my 383. I started with a Vic. Jr. and my car wouldnt even budge until about 3000 RPM's.When it stalled. Not whati wanted in my daily driver. I swapped it for a RPM, and it was a new car. My setup was AFR 195's, 236 dur 560 lift cam. 3000 stall 700r4.
