so I am getting ready to put the rest of my engine together tomorro and was wondering how to tell what side the heads go on (like is one head suspose to go on the drivers side or the pasanger side) or dose it even matter. there are the numbers that I found on the cylinder heads.

cylinder head #1 all numbers found under valve cover area.

GM 7
K
B-25 6
333882
on one end of the head there is only 1 accessory bolt hole and on the other there 3 accessory bolt holes.

cylinder head #2 all numbers found under valve cover area.

GM 5
K
B-24 6
333882
and on one end of the head there is only 1 accessory bolt hole and on the other end the are 3 accessory bolt holes.

so if anyone can help me out with this I would appreciate it.

 

Heads can go either side.But what you want is for the 3 accesory holes to go the front..Curious,why youre putting on 882 heads?

Hey Andrew..Like Daz said try to have the 3 holes at the fornt, but if you have to chose which you shouldn't put the 3 holes on the side where your alternator will go. What exactly are you builing Andy?? are the 882 stock??

 

the reasion I m putting 882 heads on is because I bought them a long time ago and I self ported and polished and had the planed down .030 all before I knew they were a large cc head. oh and I have no money for the AFR heads I want right now.

 

Hey Keiran. I building a engine............. haha j/k
its a 355ci bored, honed, decked .010, redone crank, re-sized rods, allined honed, cast pistons, preformer rpm intake, holley street advenger carb 670cfm, have not decided on the cam yet (any recomdations for the cam). nothing super special for this year. I just want to drive the dam thing its been to long(3 yrs)

 

Is it really a engine?? I always thought it was a motor.. j/K. When choosing your cam you have alot to consider. Stall, gears, the heads, etc. depending on lift, you may need new valve springs, screw in studs, etc...

 

I here people always talking about a "350 horse power cam" do you or anyone else know the specs of this? or is it just

 

No cam that I know of is called a 350 cam, cause it all depends what is in the engine. What do the performer intakes rev to again?? 6500 or 6000 RPM. anyone??

 

I think it's similar to the 3/4 cam. I'd go with an Elderbrock.

But seriously, I think the "350hp cam" refers to a copy of the '70 LT1 cam.
