    More HP for my 350

     



    Guys, I am looking to increase the HP on a chevy 350. Currently I have a mild cam, mid rise intake, 600CMF carb, shorty headers, and other goodies, but I am only getting around 300HP. I'd really love another 100HP if possible. Someone mentioned a TURBO? P

    Heads matched to your pistons and a bigger cam will put you at 400 hp. I don't know what your current compression ratio is so I can't tell you what it would be with aftermarket heads. Try to keep it less than 10:1 for mild street motors. 64, 68, and 72 cc chambers are available so pick the one that nets you close to 10:1 compression.

    Maybe a dumb question, but if you were shooting for 400 HP, why did you buy all the stuff that's perfectly tailored for a 300 HP mild street engine?
