Re: new cumbo for brother any ideas on power

Yea. The 216/216 cam isn't very aggressive, especially with 10.5:1 CR, you could go bigger on the cam. I'd double check that CR, it seems rather high.
Did you port the 416s? They really wake up after that.

Re: new cumbo for brother any ideas on power

Pick up a book, read a few threads on here, go to work porting them.
Pick a smaller cam if you want more torque, and don't want to change out the stall speed. I'd say he should up the gear set no matter what though.

Re: new cumbo for brother any ideas on power

get a stock 4.3L 2wd S10 stall from a 1998 pickup and use that, it'll stall at 2200 or so and help out the combo, though those gears will kill it as well. I'd say 260hp at most out of that combo.
