Default Camshaft,intake manifold and exhaust system??

rnocobra You need to match the parts of your motor for what you want. If you are running a small cam shaft, those big 215 heads are not going to do much for your power output. The same applies to the intake, camshaft and the big thing the EXHAUST. This is the biggest power kill of some cobras. The best thing is to match the rpm range for all 4 parts. You are running a stroker 427, so you are looking for bigger flow heads. You also need a camshaft that has the lift and duration to match your power band. What is the max rpm you are turning?? Are you running a carb or FI system? What intake are you running and is it fully ported?? Are the runners match flowed? We need some more info before giving you what might be the best heads for your motor. Compression is anotherthing we need. Send a spec list on the motor and what you want the motor to do and in what RPM range, and we will try and give you the best bang for the buck. I have seen more people buy great parts and the motors run worse than stock motors. This is why intake manifold, camshafts, heads, exhaust systems, carbs have specs and rpm ranges for the most power output. Rick L.
