    355 SBC Questions!

     



    Could use all the smart guys help out there. I'm not a motor guy so I need help. What I have is a 355 SBC that came in a Nova that I'm redoing. I'm going to go through the engine and I want to get the most thump in a cam that I can get. Not going to race it, just drive it sometimes and just want it to sound mean and angry. So what would you recommened in a cam, intake and heads or anything else I may need? I haven't tore into the engine yet so I can't tell you what is has in pistons or anything. All I know it's a 355 with 4 bolt main. It was a highschool shop class project car that the class used for drag racing is all I know.

    Thanks Guys!
