now as i said the block some how has a production flaw in chain still had slack even when i order the one for linehone blocks still slack,so to fix the slack problem i put in the tensioner and never looked back....
now when i got ready to redo the motor i said hay new cam thats when i talked to bobby(thanks bobby) and came up with the comp cam 282s
306 cam track time
7.70et @89.9mph and 1.77 60'
this thing would not 60' for $hit but would run like a mad man bout 100' out so i fig. it was cause the slack in the chain by the time the time got right i was out at bout a 100 or so feet( i think now i may be wrong) im going to look at my old time slips from back then a check all my specs form start to finish.i checked the comp. alot of times it was 185 on all cylinders cause the slack i think im not saying that this cam is all that and this but just comp. times to times with what was wrong with the combo and whats right with the combo.....with all the timeslips and what nots i have for both is just one of those things where you say if this slack was not ther i could have got the thing to 60' and run faster also use the carb that i have...im not a motor builder this is my first and not my last but im learnig as i go,i used a degree wheel for the 1st time ever on this build im just comp. what my have been...all help and ideas are great and i dont know jack but some on all this board that know more and do this stuff seem to think that they are above the little guy like that trying to learn thats all i want some good old info hope that helps buddy...thanks and keep the good info comeing guys:read2:
