    Looking for knowledge

     



    Alright, I' workin on my first build. It's a '69 Chev C-10 w/ a .060 over 350. Comp cams 280 grind, weiand dual plane, rblt holley 570, 3.48" stroke, 10:1 compression, headman headers, 2.5" exhaust. Th350 w/ 4.11 gears.

    I'm going to be lowering it 4" front an back, to get that slightly agressive rake. Also, will be transplanting a .060 over BBC but will destroke it to 437ci. The power will go through a blt 700r4 and 3.91's.

    I'm here looking for tech help and pointers. Happy to be apart of the site!

    Truck weighs a little over 3900lbs. From what i've been reading on the forums here, it sounds like it would be a smart thing to run a Sold Roller cam in the .650" lift range, 110 lsa, and about 300 adv duration, I'm having difficulties finding a cam. The valve train is definetely a main focus of mine, but i don't know much about choosing the right components. The heads will be aluminum w/ a 325cc int runner. Bottom end needs to be forged steel and balanced. The top end will be a tall single plane int. and a 850 holley Also, i'm looking at maybe running a dry sump oiling system.

    I'm looking forward to pickin at your brain pat.
