    To answer your question about the 4/7 swap cam, No...it will not give you any more power, at least not anything measurable. Hi Pat, happy holidays! And hello SVRE, nice to see a new member, and a big block guy to boot!! Very cool. John

    Thanks for the warm welcome fellas. I agree with the 4/7 swap. The only time I have seen good power from it was big cubic inch, large horsepower engines with ONE carb. Manifold distrubution means a lot there.http://www.svrehorsepower.com
