What kind of heads are you running? Aluminum heads transfer heat faster than iron and thus can take more compression before detonation rears its ugly head.
Cam choice... hmmm... what are the specs on your current cam?

Current cam is the performer rpm cam, can't find the specs. Is it possible I can use it as is? Heads are the iron smoggers 76cc, 882 is the last 3 digits in the casting number.

Opps! forgot, I haven't picked a carb. Was running a Holley 600, vac secondaries in the boat, but that carb is tired, was going to start fresh. Open to suggestions. There is so much knowledge here, I really appreciate it.

Thanks guys! It's been a long road. Fun doing finishing work for sure. Getting the dash ready for paint and some interior trim. Have to do some finish work on the aluminum headliner before...
