390 Camshaft Help. Please?
By Lane - 04/07/2004 9:57:31 PM; IP 64.12.116.81
I am building up a 66' 390 with my dad. I am having trouble selecting a cam. I want to keep the fairlane streetable but with some attitude at the stop lights. I have went .020" over on the bore, .010 & .010 on the crank and had the heads milled. The projected compression ratio is 10:1. I originally planned to use the edelbrock performer power package including: 750 carb, performer manifold, and performer plus cam & lifters. After looking at the cam sppec sheet on woody's fairlane site it seems to me that the performmer cam is not even as aggressive as the stock 390 gt cam. My heads are rebuilt oem with new valves and guides but stock valve springs. The springs can be changed but I would like to stick with the stock pushrods and rocker arm assembly. Any help with this problem would be greatly appreciated.
