    85 351W

    I was thinking about freshing it up, putting some 10.5-11.5 pistons in it. Then throwing on my edelbrock RPM heads and go from there.

    cam swap

    The new cam lift is 541 intake and 544 exhaust. The heads are on the car so it will be hard to check PVC.

    cam swap

    I am swapping from a XE262H to a XE284H. My heads have 1.90 1.60 valves. I have the stock pistons with stock valve nothces. Do you think I will run into any piston to valve issues. I dont want to pull the heads off to check piston to valve clearance.

    3:73's to 4:30s

    Look up a couple of posts and you will see my mods. Ok why is my signature with my mods not showing up on some of the posts. Ok there it worked. My 60ft times are not the best.

    3:73's to 4:30s

    I have 3:73's in my car now. I mainly run it on an 1/8 mile track. It has a T5z in it for a tranny. I run an 8.4 now with a 1.9 60ft. Do you think switching to 4:30s will help me any.

    No plans on running a turbo or supercharger. I want to get it to 400hp by next summer and see if I can get it into the 7's. If not then I will go with NOS. I just want to beat my father in-laws 550 hp supercharged 427 fairlane. He is 1000lbs heavier if not more than I am. Will the Edelbrocks...
