In a 306 engine 10.5 comp victor jr heads what camshaft do you think works well and reasonably low cost? In a drag race application comp cams Hydraulic part# cca-35-254-4 or mechanical part# cca-31-609-5, roller being too expensive for me! Anyone have desktop dyno? Mind running the #s Richard
The solid will have a higher rpm potential. So it depends on what the bottom end will stand. What's that made up of? What intake and carb? You've got heads that'll allow it to rev to the moon, but that's only part of the equation.
Stock crank with sfi balancer and windage tray, scat H-beam rods and 7/16 bolts. Lightweight keith blacks flat top pistons. Victor jr intake with Holley HP 830 carb
Add a main girdle and the solid cam and see what it's made of. Ought to be good for 8500 rpms sounds like to me if the crank holds together. I've rev'd the late 80's 302 cranks to 7500 with no special prep.
Richard i need to know what more info to run the numbers: heads, comp ratio,and what kind of exhaust setup
i have heard that the XE274H is a real good cam, and it might be my next cam that or the RPM top end kit, if i can save up for it
lunati cams hyd 538/567 fantastic lope great power turned 7500 before we took it back out to stroke it to 347 still getting everything else together, but engine sounds great
Schnider makes great cams as well. My buddy has one in his '73 Maverick, and it kicks some serious @$$...
