Thread: need help with 350 bored60 over cam shaft

Tweet

i have a 350 60 over with som speed-pro 10.0 pistons floated pins and som dart iron eagles head 230cc 2.05/1.60 with roller rockers 1.5 but what i want to know is i have a 480/480 left cam and do uall think thats a good cam for a every day driver with 2400 stall please let me know

As I've said numerous times on this forum, I always fill out a spec sheet on the car completely and accurately, send it to Comp Cams, and use their recomendations. IMO it takes all the guess work out of cam selection and I have never been disappointed in the cam and valve train components they recomeded.

I don't thoroughly understand all the different aspects of cam design and always "ask the experts". It's a free service, and works for me !!!!!!!!

THE CAM WILL BE DONE WAY BEFORE THE HEADS WILL BE.IN OTHER WORDS YOUR HEADS ARE WAY TO BIG.I WOULD THINK 230 AT .050 IS WHAT THE CAM HAS FOR DURATION ALSO.FOR A DAILY DRIVER IN A 350 I WOULD CUT THE CAM BACK TO ABOUT 215 AT .050 ON THE INTAKE SIDE AND HAVE A LOBE SEPERATION OF 110 OF LARGER.THAT WAY YOU WOULD NOT HAVE TO RUN A STALL.

Maybe swithcing to 1.6 rockers too.Check clearences first though.

SWITCHING TO 1.6 ROCKERS WILL ONLY INCREASE HIS LIFT.HE HAS A LOT OF MISS MATCHED PARTS.

can anybody give me a good combo with the things i have

Here's Dart's description on your heads....

"Maximum performance, Full Competition, unlimited Oval and Super Classes over 7000 rpm, 400+ ci"

Why in heaven's name did you choose these heads for a daily driver? They'll make power from 4,500 to 8,500 in a 400+ cubic inch motor. You won't believe how horrible they'll be in a daily driver 350 street motor. No power under 4,500 r's. Sell 'em on ebay and start over with some 180 cc heads would be my best advice.

I AM SORRY THESE HEADS ARE WAY TO BIG.ON OUR 421/434'S WE TURN TO 7,500 OR SOMETIMES MORE THIS IS THE PORT VOLUME WE USE IF WE RAN ON A TRACK THAT MAKES US RUN THE STD.HEAD STYLE.LIKE RICHARD SAID I WOULD TRY AND SELL THEM.LOOK SOMETHING AROUND THE 170 CC SIZE.LOOK FOR A CAM WITH A DURATION OF 215 ON THE INTAKE SIDE.

I'd like nothing better than to help you, but it's not possible. You're starting with the wrong parts.
