I'm not doing yur homework for you. I already did theses combos, no print-outs, no graphs, just real-world results.

>A tip-in sag can happen the instant you come off idle and no matter how slowly you open the throttle. This is usually caused by a lack of fuel coming from the Transfer slots, and can be aggravated by a too low fuel level. The fix for this is super easy, just park the throttles with more...

Well not by your included .006 numbers it ain't. Lemme work it out with the 050s I' be back, lol.

Leave the 318 cam in it; but Re-spring the valves for 5500, install any 4bbl, open air-cleaner, headers, and a free-flowing exhaust. Finally, the piece-de-resistance; Put an 833od in it and no less than 3.55s . The starter gear of 10.97 will rocket her off the line, Out-shifting at 5000...

Find a guy in your neighborhood with a nice car, and once a week, pay him to take you to town for groceries andchit. Keep yur money for a new roof. If you lived next door, I'd gladly take you for a romp. Bring your wife, and I'd even let you take it out on yur own. Just gimmee some time to...

Too late, in for a dollar/in for a pound.

The factory cam had a LSA of 114 Yours, by the numbers is 108.25 If I copied the numbers right; Here is the big picture, using the .006 advertised numbers; first the factory, then yours; 268int/114comp/106power/276exh/44overlap/66Ica 279int/102.5comp/106pwr/311ex/78.5overlap/77.5Ica SO; if I...

IMO, first reset the endplay to near zero or even a tiny bit of preload, secure the locking system, then roadtest it. >If/when the problem returns, check the endplay. If it has changed, then unless the bearings are soft a butter, most likely the cups are still not seated I use the old cups to...

I do not run them THAT loose, lol. IIRC the spec is .001 to .003 end play. It's just enough that it closes in on Zero when the bearings get warm. I think the last time I adjusted them I set them to not more than .007, it depends on if I can get the locking-parts to line up with a cotter-pin...

Did you install the bearing races? Are you sure they are all bottomed in the bores? I usually run my bearings just a hair loose, for a wee bit of knock-back. This helps in the fuel-economy runs. It doesn't seem to hurt the bearings cuz mine have over 130,000 miles on them. But, my pedal doesn't...

A wiseman once wrote, that if you can feel the Secondaries opening, in your street combo, then you probably have the Secondaries coming in too soon. He was of course, not talking about a double pumper, lol.

And then you get to tune the Holley......... In my 11/1, Eddy-headed 367 is a similar Hughes cam, and I run an Airgap, currently, with a Holley. I like it. But, that engine has run two other intakes and about 4 other carbs, including a TQ and a Carter AVS . All of them required tuning. All of...

Be sure you know the difference between a "bog" and a tip-in hesitation. Each is cured differently. Other important factors are; fuel-level, pump timing, Ignition timing, valve lash and even cylinder pressure.

If it runs hot below ~30 mph, and as you say, "the rad is doing it's job" (with the spalls); then the gauge must be wrong. If it runs hot above ~30mph, and as you say, "the rad is doing it's job"(with the spalls); then yur not getting ram air thru it. If it runs hot at idle, and as you say, "the...

In my 367/manual-trans car, I have run 3 cams, two of which were/are very similar to your offerings.>In all cases I was/am running 1.6arms on OOTB Edelbrock alloy heads with a Squish of 028>032. This allowed running of 87E10 full-time with 34*PowerTiming. Here are the cams; #1) 292/292/108...
