Re: ay ay ay?

stock everything? What heads, intake, carb? What are the rest of the specs on the cam such as lobe center and duration?

Re: ay ay ay?

If it has all the other dynamics I`m thinking,it would make other engine mods necessary as well as a higher stall converter.Take into consideration your rear end ratio and desired rpm range for where you want your power.There`s more to it than slapping a cam in once you go beyond a mild grind.
