good cam/head selection for mild 350 build
I have not decided on a head choice yet, but want some ideas of what guys are running. I am looking for torque and may be pulling a small trailer in the near future for camping/jet skis etc. Just want some pulling power. I also want a good sound. I am looking at a set of camel humps with 2.02-1.60 valves. Have not made up my mind on head choice. I managed to find a much debated high nickel block. I had it bored .040 overbore and it's ready for a build
The heads that are currently on my truck are 462624 castings. I have read on the net that these are junk. Another alternative I am considering are the world heads. Anyone use these. What are some other good factory casting that will work well with the cams you can recommend. The truck weighs 3780 empty. Was kind of surprised at how light it is. One guy told me it's the weight of a chevelle etc. Anyway, a friend of mine tole me I did not need 2.02's and that 1.94's is all I need. Please advise for those that have put these combos together. Lastly, my truck currently has what I believe is a 327 based on the very small balancer. It drives good but is very tired. I think a 350 would provide more initial torque correct.. which should in turn see a savings in MPG. Thanks in advance. |
