A little history on the rebuild.?? What was done.



A mechanic friend of mine and I assembled the motor in his garage about 6 years ago and it sat in a bag in my garage until this year. I was the one who was responsible for torqing the heads .
so...
I have a couple of questions.
I orginally used an engine gasket set from Fel-pro when we put it together.
What is a better head gasket to use now?
When we assembled the motor I told him I really wanted the motor to be more dependable and idle smoothly than a ground pounder.
He convinced me that a P4452759 cam would be just fine.
While the car was running, it's idle was anything but smooth.
Now would be the time to slip it out and replace it with the P4452782 which I understand is the stock replacement cam for a 1970 340 isn't it.
there is also the P4452757, which is one "notch" up from the stock unit.
What is your opinion of these three camshafts. what would I sacrifice?
thanks

Mike
