    Hi,I do a rebiuld of the engine and the heads, the stock D3VE valves and rockerarms are worn so I have to by new ones anyway so I think that I by "better" ones,
    The camshaft will be a mild one I have not decided the profile yet(any rekomendation?),larger valves, Performer intake ,Holly 650 carb,the pistons vill be 0,30 TRW flat tops.
    I think of it more like a tuning rather than shooting for a specific HP.

    Cool

     



    The OEM style stamped steel pedestal rockers should be perfectly fine in your application and with cams up to 0.550" lift.

    Installing larger valves without the associated valve bowl and port work will help some but only a little.
