Re: After Much Research

I forget, is this going on a 350?

If it is, then that's a good parts list, I like it. The vortecs are proven, that cam is a pretty solid midrange cam, but make sure you're going to know how to tune the computer in for it.

The rocker arms are unnecessary, those are way overkill, I would go with these http://store.summitracing.com/partde...6&autoview=sku Those are very good and strong and full roller.

I'm not sure about that intake manifold though, I haven't looked closely enough at a 2barrel mounting pattern, so I don't know how the TBI would fit on it, maybe fine. If it were me, I'd probably just go for a Edelbrock Performer RPM Vortec.

Should be a strong build though, make sure you check clearance on those heads so you know for sure they can take the lift of that cam.

Re: After Much Research

if you go with those heads, which are centerbolt style, that rocker arm set-up wouldnt work anyways. That manifold is probably not the best choice either, the edelbrock performer rpm vortec is most likely your best choice.

I just gave you a link to some.

It'll work on a 305, but you'll lose compression. Only way to get it back would be to mill the heads down a little or buy heads with 58cc combustion chambers (or similar). The loss in compression will be compensated by the gain in flow of the heads but it will still be too low compression for my taste.

Go over to Elliot Reeder road, Dismantlers 2000 and pick up a core L05 or L31 350 block. Get the roller cam block. They have litterally dozens of them, CHEAP. Build the 350. I like the 305, but at the point you are, go ahead and step up to build the 350.
