Had you planned to use a looser-stall converter so you could run more cam? More cam requires more static compression ratio.
The car will be for the street mainly,but want it to have power and be a tire smoker.I love the sound of a big cam.93 oct. is the best pump gas around here.Vacuum is not a big thing,school brakes for now,but will have vacuum advance.The motor has been punched out to 30 over. It has flat tops and camel humps.Will go with a stall if needed.Maybe a set of alum. heads
