Yeah the deal was a 4 bolt main block (454) already bored .060 with the stock crank and stock rods that already had the brand new flat tops on them. It also came with a set of peanut port heads and my cylinder head guy said they would choke out after 4,500 rpm or so. So I found the 781's for $200 complete and i'm gonna cut them for 2.19/1.88 valves and get them a basic port job. They look as if they have been milled before but look stock other than that. I was planning on at least a .550 lift cam but I want a nice flat torque curve throughout the rpm band. I know the gears gotta go, and they will as soon as I can afford them. I don't know how to install them myself. I really just want it to be fun and powerful, And it will see some midnight drags as well. So lower the stall and be conservative on the cam, right? I will have to use Flat tappet for now so what would you recommend, keeping in mind the gears are next in line. I was considering comp extreme 4x4 cam with more exhaust duration.the reptilian brain is now the one involved
Ditto on the model kits! My best were lost when the Hobby Shop burned under suspicious circumstances....
