|
|
so as time goes on and i learn more i start to understand things better.
So i have my block bored. 030 over
Heads 168cc 67cc 1.94/1.50
Performer rpm intake
Qjet carb
Rear for 99 trans am so think 3.27 gears
Cam 236/244
.520 intake.535 exhaust duration at. 050
Stall will prob ne 2800 or 3000
Question is : is cam to much for heads. Will power be, made at way too higj rpms?
Is there anything i can do to compensate it.
Or is it best to get different cam.
I would likento get different heads but budget says no |

That thing will be a pain to dial in for the street with such a large cam.
I would look to trade down in size with someone who wants to upgrade, but I build cheap so YMMV. |

Way too much cam for the head flow.
That's 0.050 duration? _________________ A redline a day keeps the carbon away! |
