350ho
Looking for a new engine for my Camaro. Would like it to have just a little lop on the cam. The ZZ4 is what I would like to get but just a little out of my $$$ right now. Looking at the 350HO right now, will it have a little lop to it?
350HO specs.
With its four bolt main block, nodular iron crankshaft, PM steel connecting rods and light but strong cast aluminum pistons, this engine screams durability. Add to the strong foundation a pair of 64cc Vortec cast iron cylinder heads with 1.94'' intake and 1.50'' exhaust valves which yields a healthy but streetable 9.1 to 1 compression ratio, and you've got the small block that you need for that muscle car or street rod project. The camshaft is a modern dual pattern interpretation of the old '65 to '67 Corvette 327 cam. But with more lift and duration on the exhaust side for clearing the combustion chamber better. While the intake duration and lift was decreased slightly to build more cylinder pressure.
330 HP @ 5000 RPM, 380 ft.lbs. Torque @ 3800 RPM (Max. Recommended RPM: 5500)

I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
