First time. I am looking for info, tips and tricks or just your personal opinion. So chime in if you want. So here is what I'm thinking. I've bought some parts. Other are still up for debate. Which is why I'm here.

Block = 350 4 bolt main 3970010 69-79 vette car or truck. I pulled it out of a 74 half ton pick up. was rebuilt a time or 3. But it had pink rods so Im guessing it didn't come from that pick up. But who knows?

Crank = I went with the scat 9000 pro comp light weight internally balanced. 6 inch rod and 3.750 stroke.

Rods = Scat 4340 forged pro stock I beam

Pistons = KB Silvo-lites

Heads = Going with the old "camel back" or "fuelie" or "double hump" heads 194 valves. 462's They will be rebuilt.

Intake manifold = weiand stealth

Carb = Holley double pumper 750

As far as everything else. ARP Bolt kit. I plan on clearencing the block myself. Have it bored thirty over. New freeze plugs Cam bearings. Hot tanked etc. So my first question. Due to the clearance issues. What would be a good cam and valve spring combo?
