Cam recommendations for 355 SBC
I've got a 355 that is just too rough for the street where it will be spending all of its time. Vacuum is only 5-6 Hg at idle and is very rough & don't even ask how the power brakes work. Engine has 2.02 double hump heads, flat top pistons & 1.6 ratio needle roller rocker arms which I'd like to keep. Compression ratio is in the 9-9.5 range. What i'd like is a cam that will smooth things out & give me 15 about Hg vacuum at idle.
Thanks in advance for your opinions,
Dave
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.
