430hp 440 - 04/28/24 12:46 AM
I recently bought a fresh short block from a friend. It is bored .040, forged flat top pistons are .070 in the hole. I also got a fresh set of 452 and 516 heads with it. The heads have been cc'd and are 81cc for the 516's and 89cc for the 452's. I will be using steel shim head gaskets that are .022 thick. I know I will be losing some flow using the 516's. What I'm looking for is what cam and which set of heads to make about 430 horsepower? I will be using a Weiand 8009 intake, 750 vacuum secondary Holley and headers. Any input would be appreciated.
