Purple Shaft 280/280 cam

The problem with all these cars sounding so radical is the carbs and total timing are not adjusted correctly.
I have run the .474 cam, and if you run a 6.5 power valve in your carb ,you will have a motor that is loading up at idle.(6.5 is stock for holley carbs)
Also the timing needs to be correct.34 total or more.
I had a 6.5 in my 360 when i first got it running and you would swear it was a funny car.
If you go a little more then half your vacume reading it does not hurt a thing.
If you run a 3.5 power valve with the .474\.484 cams and set your timing at 36 total it will idle perfect.
Run a 35 pump shot to start.BIG CHANGE IN THE CARS IDLE AND PERFORMANCE FROM A DEAD STOP TO FULL PEDAL.
Also these cams need the total timing in by 2200 rpms, so use a mopar performance set of distributor springs.
I have run both cams in my 360.
I HEARD DJVCUDA'S VIDIO AND SPIT OUT MY COFFEE BECAUSE THATS THE WAY MY 360 RAN THE DAY I STARTED THE MOTOR ,BEFORE ANY ADJUSTMENTS WHERE MADE.
If he makes the changes i have given here to his car, it will be a total differant animal.
The car no don't sounds mad and ratty ,and is better at high rpm's as you can see by the vidio, but he's leaving a bunch of torque and horse power in the tool box.
If he does take my advice after he reads this, and makes the changes ,the car will be so snappy you won't be able to keep the rpm,s down.
I hope he has a rev limiter.:sad7:
