tpi swap help
hello, i am swaping to tpi for my 305, i am putting on a set of #113 heads that are brand new off a zz4 motor with stock springs, if possible i would like to leave those alone and not mess with springs...
I am looking at this cam:
http://store.summitracing.com/partde...4&autoview=sku
The car is 86 iroc, 5 speed, 3.27 gears, and going to be TPI, headman torq step headers, magnaflow 3in catback exhaust.
any thoughts?

Re: tpi swap help
The combustion chamber on those 350 heads will be big for your 305 and may actually lower your compression and performance.

I am sorry to blast jv9999 but guys do a little research and display some FACTUAL KNOWLEDGE before posting. I am just trying to keep the fact from the fiction. Too many people will take the fiction and run with it spreading false information.

Re: tpi swap help
yeah the heads will be ok, i believe the springs should be ok too. im not looking for power after 5300-5500 rpms because of the stock tpi for now.
