The D0 heads are the ones to use. Carb - I would probably use Holley 750 CFM Vac secondary List-3310 for performance or a 600 CFM Vacuum secondary LIST-1850 for street.

Hello Randy: thanks for replay,which cam you recomend? e-cam is a good choice on this application?

Cam?
Hey;
I have a friend with a similiar setup. He went from a E303 to a X303 because he wanted more power but still planned on a street car. Good Luck:CRY: :JEKYLHYDE |
Ok, got that;302 air gap intake is ok??? Valve springs???
Rockers ratio??? Tks |
5L
Hi,
You need to use a '85 duraspark distributor , it has a steel cam gear for the roller cam. A 'E' cam would be better with a performer rpm for a street aplication. 1.6 rockers are standard for a small block. Good Luck, Perry.:cool: |
MSD ready to run Distributor is nice set up and easy to hook up. I would use a Comp cam around .515 lift and 220 duration at .050. I used ford motorsport rockers adjustable stud mount because at the time summitt had them on sale. let us know how it runs when you get it together.
