Thnaks guys, i know i have a mis-matched set up, i was trying to work from a budget and alot of horse trading to build this car/engine and am paying for it now. The compression check is at 160-165 @ all cylinders, and i went with the recommendation of comp. cams on using the XE274 230-488 cam with the current set up, but they said using higher gears would be better... i debated on using the XE268 cam which is 224-477 but comp. recommended the 274 with the stall speed etc. I'm working on putting the Weiland intake on and going with a higher gear probably 3.55 to 3.90. this is going to be my weekend cruiser and i really want to be able to run 70 mph without all the RPMS. Thanks again to all for your help and imput. Also the Int. timing is at 25-28 which i stated a incorrct int. timing in my original post.
