Hi folks. I am bolting together some parts I have accumulated through the years. This is going to be a budget build utilizing as much of the shelves in my garage as possible.
I am starting with stock stroke 360, not looking to build a stroker as the short block is very low miles wilt decent parts.
What I have:
stock stroke 360 w/ flat tops
Heavily ported W2’s
Holley Pro dominator tunnel ram
What I need help with:
camshaft (thinking solid flat, looking for suggestions)
carburetors (thinking eddy’s, again open to suggestions on size and make)
Engine will end up in an A-Body, 3.91 gears and auto.
I would like to go solid flat tappet for cam.
Basically looking to build an old school budget street bruiser that will see the odd day at the track.
Thanks in advance!
If the heads work really good, the TR will push your rpm range up quite high...and unless the valves your using are really lightweight, you may run into high rpm problems (above 7200rpm).
Yes you can run higher pressures, up to a point though...just alot going on with poor tappet angle, largely offset rockers and heavy valve train.
Solid roller would be my recommendation...is this on pump gas?
If so, then solid FT might work as rpm peak will be a bit lower with lower compression.
