If I stick with the Vortec heads what size cam would y'all recommend. And I would like to know a few options on sticking with the TBI or switching it to a carb and get rid of all the computer crap. If I switch to the carb and it don't have a computer does it matter what size crank and cam I put in it. Thanks for all the helpp. When I start building it I'll try and add some pics to show everything thanks again

what cam with the TBI ? the gm cam.. any thing bigger just plain will not work .i went roller on the last one as the customer had a roller block so like i said i had a very small custom cam that would work. go carb you can make it take more cam . the old tbi are not very friendly to work overs. some guys have gone up to the 454 main body .moving up to a 383 with a stock cam with 1.6 rockers may work out good . i know many guys tried bigger cams.i never seen one that would work goodLast edited by pat mccarthy; 08-28-2012 at 08:34 PM.

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.
