Hi Clois,

Thanks, thats helpful.

I've already got an ali med riser manifold with a Holly 750dp on it. I'm planing on keeping these since they seem to work fine.

My heads are iron and don't plan on changing them (don't know the comp ratio, is there a way of working that out?).
I do have MSD ign though

So basically 572 lift and 235 duration gives a good streetable range then? What is the tickover/idle at?

Before it all went wrong I think the engine gave about 400 at the fly wheel so that would be about 320 at the rear wheels.

430+ at the wheels is definately more than I need (but I'm sure I could find a use for it )

Paul
