Optimum setup for 302 heads
Thanks for the replies. The reason I'm posting is because of reading some of BJR's posts. I don't want to over valve the 302's if it would actually hurt performance since I'm building a cruiser street engine.
I have Comp Cams Camquest 6 software (engine dyno for dummies ;-) and am using BJR's head flow figures for ported 302's with stock valves. The flow he obtained at 0.2-0.4 is outstanding.
Ported 302, 1.78 intake, 136 cc runner:
0.1 0,2 0.3 0.4 0.5 0.6
89 164 216 232 231 231
I also read the thread on Lunati VooDoo cams and I'm planning on using their 60403 grind instead of one from Comp Cams. That combo with the Edelbrock Performer and 600 cfm carb, according to the software, will get me over the 400hp mark. Since i already have the intake and carb, and am shooting for 400hp, this sounded perfect.
I'm asking the group for a sanity check because I know you guys have more advanced dyno software and more experience spec'ing and building engines.
Any more input is welcome. I'll also shoot BJR a PM
