RE: 428 build up

just a few suggestions from me, first look at what rpm range you intend to stay in most of the time.
for a street engine you might run in the 800-3500 rpm range about 80% of the time. now since you want more power overall and good low end power you should look for components that build power in the 1000-5500 or 1500-6000 rpm range. this way in stead of trying to compare cams by specs you compare them by rpm range. cam makers will make cams for the same rpm range with different specs and you will get confused trying to decipher them. for heads since you want a street motor go with the performer heads(not the rpm ones) and intake.
as for the cam there are a number of good grinds for the FE in the rpm range you want, pick your favorite and go with it. i prefer comp cams, edelbrock, or crane cams myself. good luck.
This thread, so far...
