converting to tpi from a 305 tbi. what cam should i run? right now i have 1 3/4 headers, high flow y pipe, 3 in pipe, no cat, flowmaster 80 series, underdrive pulleys. stock tbi heads but ported polished, 3 angle job, shaved .0012, z28 springs. ands its 5 speed, and running 3.42 gears.

 

depends, are you willing to re tune? do you just want plug and play? big lope, what are you looking to gain?

 

1 3/4 headers on a 305?! Dayum.

 

i want a lil bit of a lopey idle nothing serious though. about re-tuneing. i do plan on either takeing it to a dyno shop that does tuneing, or one day learning how to do it. that might come after i build a 350 for this bird. about the header size, yeah i know it does sound big for a 305, but it sounds so sweet, and when i installed them and ran the car it felt stronger than the other headers i had which were the dynomax a.i.r. headers and they were smaller. i was thinking about getting the compcam xfi 268 cam. i listened to the sound clip from the other guys 'bird which he posted in the forum and i loved that sound. now granite he has some other mods to his engine. and i do plan on building a 350 one of these days whenever finances get better.
