Hey Guys,
I have the top end of my motor apart and I happened to notice that two of the cam lobes are wiped clean. I have no idea what the specs are on this dead cam, but it did the job for me and I was pretty happy with it. So now I need some advice on what cam I should get, and I'm pretty ignorant when it comes to cam specs. Hopefully you guys can help. Here's my setup:
-1978 318 .30 over
-small valve 360 heads with just a bit of a cleanup done in the bowl.
-Stock type piston (yes, down in the hole at TDC).
-Mr Gasket thin gaskets will be going back on it (to hopefully make up for the super low compression a little bit)
-LD340 intake (will probably upgrade to a performer soon).
-Carter 625 cfm carb.
-Headers going into 2.5" dual exhuast.
-Mopar orange box ignition
-904 trans with a shift kit and about a 2200 stall converter.
-3.23 gears in a sure grip 8 3/4 rear end.
-Electric fan.
I'm pretty much looking to make maximum power, with a slight (very slight) leaning towards torque over horsepower. It should have a good bump at idle, but at the end of the day it's a street car so it doesn't see high rpm situations all that often. But when I do get into the upper reaches of the rpm range, I still want it to go pretty good.
Soooo... ideas?
Thanks,
Mike
