haha, yes iv heard of mondellos, i know he specializes in Olds motors, and i had heard that he was only building complete motors for customers at this time but it could have changed.

I wanted to keep roughly the same compression ratio as stock which is 10:5 so thats my main reason, and i know i always have to put 91 gas in with a little octane booster to help, im currently running the setup your talking about with my F1 except i have edelbrock heads and a cam with over .500" lift with stock rockers, so im not exactly sure whats going on with that then, but my plan with compression was that it runs fine right now, so i figured id probally run good after being rebuilt, but the cam could change all that as you stated, i still wish to make my 350-400HP goal which im thinking is either going to require alot of head work or fairly high compression, so maybe ill have to swing by modellos tomarrow after school thanks for the help, i need to start ordering stuff so this is helping out alot
