I don't have the cam card for the cam otherwise I'd stick it in however
the card says. Anyone know where should degree it at?

Current combo is:
Edelbrock 6037's (old style) with 2.02 valves
Holley Systemax II intake
75mm MAF 70 MM TB & Spacer
1-5/8ths shorties with 2-1/2" OR exhuast
1.7 roller rockers

I'm looking for max power to occur right at 5800-6000 RPM,
I'm going to spin it up to 6300 RPM.

TIA
Mike

what gears are you running? i think that really determines how much you can advance the cam. you advance the cam 1 degree and the power band moves up like 100 rpms or around there. but if you cant keep the engine in the power band youre screwed.

i just looked at the cam specs for the f-303 and it says it makes peak power hp at 6000....and peak torque at 2800. so id just say leave it straight up

install it straight up according to the cam card, not the little marks on your timing chain.which means youll need to degree it in.(degree wheel and dial indicator)
