I need to to choose a cam and pistons and need your expert advice. This is what i have so far . 373 gears, 770 Holley street avenger and an RPM Air Gap intake. Do you think i should use the KB107 pistons? what will work better for me the Lunati voodoo cam 60403 Duration @ .050 IN/EX: 226/234;Lift IN/EX: .494"/.513";LSA / ICL: 110/106;RPM Range: 1800-6200 or voodoo 60404 Duration @ .050 IN/EX: 234/242;Lift IN/EX: .513"/.533";LSA / ICL: 110/106;RPM Range: 2200-6400

The KB107's are designed to be a zero deck piston. This leaves your comp. ratio @ 9.8-1 with the larger open chambered heads. It'll be a bit much for pump gas.

Ask BJR if the H116CP's from Fed-Mogual are any shorter. There also a nice piston with an additional anti scuff coating on the sides.

On cam choice, I would go for the smaller one. The heads will have to be worked on for rocker tip clearance and possible spring seat area. A bowl porting and good valves is all you would need to do for best results with the iron heads.

Everything else looks good. (Though I would rather long tube headers.)
