305 cam advice needed
okay so i'm stuck putting together a 305 for my daily ride a 76 el camino. the free shortblock already has 040 over flat top pistons and just needs a camshaft replacement I lean towards the edelbrock performer cam which is duplicated by summit as the k1102 grind obviously this heavy elcamino is usually used to pick up parts and just go to work stuff but im going to need it to tow my 68 chevelle on occasion. what do you guys reccommend
hopefully somebody here has built a grunty 305 before.
the elcamino does have all power options but fortunately has a 700r4 with 3.42 rear gears so there is torque multiplication.
any ideas?? Could I step up to the next grind which is 214/224 at 050? thanks
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.
