Building a motor for my daily driver '67 383 Barracuda.
Car has a 727 & 4.10 gears with 28" tires & torque converter is a factory style high stall Dacco 764.
Engine is getting the basic clean up/machining now.
I bought 0.030 over forged flat top aluminum pistons w/ 1.920" compression distance.
I bought an Eddelbrock Performer RPM intake
I bought a pair of TTI 1 3/4" shorty headers
Planning to get the E-Street 75cc heads, thought about 440 Source Stealth heads, leaning towards the Edelbrocks.
Planning on the thin gaskets(not steel) & from what I can tell compression should be a little over 10:1.
Looking for a cam for a car that spends 95% of its time on the street & lots of driving-15k a year. Planning on running stock rockers & stock style push rods. Just don't want to oversize the cam & give up useable power on the street. I have a set of 516 heads that could be built but think for the money it's probably better running aluminium.
Any tips on cam selection for this combo?
