Here is my current combo, this is the original numbers matching 340 for my Duster it's a street driven car and full bodied etc. I don;t want any steeper gears then I currently have. I'm looking for more power by tweaking my current combo. Contemplating cam changes and or Edelbrock heads/Indy RHS heads but not sure if there are enough gains with the heads on a mild application.
Thoughts and opinions?
650 Speed Demon mechanical secondaries, on an edelbrock rpm intake
Stock J Heads 2.02 intake 1.60 exhaust and Crane Gold 1.5 ratio rocker arms.
3.55 gears and a 727 with 3000rpm SMR Convertor- stage 2 shift kit from transgo.
It runs a Hughes cam #heh2328al
111deg lobe seperation/installed centerline 108deg
intake lift .506/ exhaust .524
Duration@.050 Intake223deg/ Exhaust 228deg
Engine is .060 over with Keith Black Hypereutectic pistons on stock rods and a stock forged crank.
Ignition is an FBO box
Distributor was curved by Dave's Mopar in Calgary to the engine specs initial timing is 18deg.
TTI Headders with an x-pipe into Dynomax Ultra Flows
The car was tuned with an A/F meter in the tail pipe while driving, prior to the 3000rpm stall the best time down the track was 14.8 with a MPH in the low to mid 90's but the 60 foot was in the 2 second range.
I find the car lacking off the line it won't chirp the tires from a stand still even but with some rpm it goes great. Some guys have pointed that my compression with the stock J heads may be down around 9.0-1, and a head change may help that department out a lot.
