Hehe. Thanks again.
And for the final, when i got this engine, it had a 4V Edelbrock performer intake,
and the carb is a 600cfm, edelbrock too.
Cylinder bore honed, new piston rings, main bearings and rod bearings. The ring gap was in within the limits after the repair manual.
Stock heads with some porting job done. Stock valve size,not sure if there is a new valve seat, but the valves looks incredibly fresh and fine to be old ones.
I my self are going to get them milled a bit, so we get a little higher comp.
The cam i don't know, the guy i bought the engine from sayd that it was changed, but to what he didn't know.
I tryed to measure the cam lobe, but are not sure if I did it right, but it landed on 0.310". I didn't finde my degree wheel so no duration measuring.
So if my measurements where right, I would have a gross valve lift around 0.527".?
Stock rocker arms, dual valve springs.
So to the question, how much hp will this engine produce with these mods?
I was hoping i would be around 300hp
What do you think?
