RE:Barry's not an idiot

No way Barry! I do think measuring the hood clearance is a good suggestion. Just eyeballing the '60 Starliner donormobile, which still has the complete powetrain in it, looks tight between the air cleaner & hood. Like I won't be able to run the K & N 3" filter that I'm running on my '68 F-100/390. We (John and I, I always thought of the '61 as mutually owned while running his engine) ran the K & N 3" tri-power/dual four filter on the tri power easily because I'd installed a Crites fiberglass T-bolt style hood. I'd run one on my '60 but he doesn't make one of those wide monsters. All comments and suggestions were positive and enlightening to me. Just when I thought I knew it all......
One other thing I'd like is where can the cam specs be found for the original High Performance solid lifter cam? I have the cam in hand along with the original lifters. It's the Ford cam for sure. It just amazes me that these cams worked so well in the 352-406 with only 276 degrees of duration. Not much more than the old smoothy GT/CJ hydraulic cam. I do know that there's a lot more to a cam's performance characteristics than just duration. I'd just like to have a resource for the cam specs.
What I want to do "someday" is totally restore/rebuild the original 352 HP. The only change I'd make would be to the cam retainer from thrust button/spring/timing cover to thrust plate. I'd like to run a cam with the exact specs of the original. That may require a customcam ground using the original.
This thread, so far...
