Soon as I read this I had the same thought. Rather than change the whole combination(gears, intake) to suit the cam, plug a bigger cam in it. You will go WAY faster, make more noise, and have more fun. I would look for something with duration around
[email protected], on 108 deg lobe separation to help crutch the low compression. 106 would be even better, but you might have a hard time finding something like that. Run LOTS of initial with this combo, its gonna idle pretty rough. the Perf. RPM would be marginally better than the Strip Dom. with this combo, but I wouldn't lose any sleep over it, especially considering you already have the holley intake & you are on a tight budget. Dont get caught up in worrying about having the latest parts, they arent a cure-all, contrary to what car craft might tell you on behalf of thier advertisers.(hint, hint)
