What cam to use in 340

you are talking about a rare exception to the rule and as you mentioned, those heads were ported, not stock, therefore, the same rule applies with one minor alteration, roller cams are a waste of money on iron heads UNLESS they are heavily ported W2's.

I disagree. The W2 flows enough air to move a vehicle very well and a solid roller wouldn't be wasted in a as cast head.

Now a second down memory lane. Before the W2 introduction, didn't small block racers run in the 10's?

Anybody have a "Mr. 4 speed" video?

Now bang for the buck, since your already spending huge, I say you might as well port it and Max it out.

To me, 2 things suck about the W2. Valve train expense!
Exhaust expense!
And has everyone noticed the cost of new aluminum intakes? As in gone through the roof!
