It is an Oldsmobile 350. 7A Heads.
Definites:
Sealed Power Flat Top pistons.
Edelbrock Dual Plane Performer RPM intake manifold.
Will go with the Rochester Quadrajet.
Double timing chain.
Performance water pump and oil pump.
I believe I will go with the original rocker arms and valves, just clean the valves real good.
No head work, although maybe I will just sand down the exhaust side.
Headers.
Question:
The main question is what camshaft to use to optimize this for maximum horsepower and torque. I definitely want to go hydraulic roller, I think it is worth it. Is duration 262/268 with .505/.505 lift too much? This is what I'm referring to: http://www.compcams.com/Company/CC/c...csid=1182&sb=2
Any other recommendations or input is appreciated.
