First I would like to introduce myself I'm John Taylor have been a body and paint guy for about 45 years all over the country and now semi retired I am currently building a '51 Plymouth bussiness coupe and installing a nova front frame stub to make it more road friendly.
So, as I have it tore down I thought I'd go through the motor to see just what is in it as it was already built by the PO. It's a 69 350 4 bolt with flat top Pistons, balanced rotating assy double roller chain, camel hump heads w 202s and 160s been ported and polished, Edelbrock air gap intake and Edelbrock 650 carb and HEI dist.
Currently running a th350 w 2500 stall. 10 bolt rear end w 342 gears. The car weighs in at 2800 lbs and ran out strong as was but I want more! The cam was close to maybe an rv style and just wasn't my cup of tea. The motor has a lot of potential but I believe it could be so much more with the right valvetrain setup and carb/ manifold. So any ideas would be appreciated..... I really am looking for decent drivability but all the power I can get at the strip
