So after along wait I am getting ready to finish assembling my motor.I came across a good deal on edelbrock rpm 2.02 heads and cam is 7122 edelbrock.I calculate 9.5 comp. I am a little worried about using the 2.02 heads as I worry about losing low end torque. I have a wc t5 and plan on btwn 3.25-3.55 rear end. What can I expect from that combo as far as street driving?
7122 specs
Duration at 0.006" Lift: Intake: 298° Exhaust: 302°
Duration at 0.050" Lift: Intake: 227° Exhaust: 234°
Lift at Cam: Intake: 0.325" Exhaust: 0.325"
Lift at Valve: Intake: 0.520" Exhaust: 0.520"
Timing at 0.050" lift: Open Close
Intake: 6° BTDC 41° ABDC
Exhaust: 54° BBDC 0° ATDC
Centerlines: Lobe Separation - 112° Intake Centerline - 107°
In a 65 coupe

Thanks for any input

Your intake/carb combo has a lot to do with street manners as well as the heads and cam. Yet you didn't mention them

Both will go a long way into good street manners. You shouldn't have any problems there.
