Hey guys, I have an 86 MC, LS, with the original 305. Heads have 14014416 casting numbers, which if I have my info right, are 1.84int/1.50exh, with 58cc heads. I was planning to install the next parts on it, all from summit:
- Comp Cams K12-600-4 kit
Cam specs:
279int/297exh
At 0.50 227int/241exh lift
.479int/.465exh valve lift
- Holley 0-4777SAE 650CFM double pumper carb
- A forged rods kit, tbd
- KB KB144.030 piston kit - advertised to have 10.5:1 CR with the heads I have
- Weiand 7547-1 Single Plane Intake
My question is, does anybody has a similar setup? What HP and TQ numbers are you pulling with a similar setup? Will this even work? I would like a nice low-end torque with hard mid-torque. I have a TH350, 300HP kit on it, stock converter and stock rear end.
Any opinion will be greatly appreciated.
I already know that a 350 will be better, however, I'm from Costa Rica and getting hands on a good junkyard block here is close to impossible, even more impossible to get a full 350 or any other SBC, so I want to squeeze all power from the 305 I have. Thanks.
