Hey Guys

I'am gonna start to build a street motor for my son and need a little help on

deciding what route to take .

Is 500+ hp doable and live on the street?

Here are the specs so far

1973 440 block not decked yet.

2355 TRW pistons 2.061 comp heigt = .020 in the hole

edelbrock aluminum rpm's 82cc OOTB.

performer rpm intake gasket matched.

felpro .039 or .020 steel shims?

purple shaft .528 straight up or advanced?

steel crank and 6 pack rods.

if i deck the block .020 to get zero deck height that will give me a quench in the range of .039

& comp in 10:24 with pump gas.

My Questions

1. with the 2355 piston valve reliefs can i run the .528 cam or will ptv be a issue ?


2. Has anyone run a similar combo on the street ? what were the results ?

Thanks Guys
