When you get the flow-data for the heads, send me ALL the info. Also have it flowed with a pipe on the exhaust & an intake if possible....oh, & get flow #'s with a 4.030 bore.

Once I have these #'s from .300-.600 I'll be better able to find you a cam.

Oh yeah, I also need the tranny/gears you plan on running & what RPM you want peak power at....or close to. Ideally what you want to do is keep the shift recovery in the 'fat' of the torque curve....& cross the traps of th e1/4 mile just after peak HP in 4th gear.
