Nope....those RPM ranges are for a 302 engine, and are not directly transferable as is to a 351w setup.....they will be lower. However, it will all depend on your expectations/plans with your combo.

Nope....if you match any head (170cc, 185cc, 195cc, 210cc) with the correct camshaft and valvetrain......the end result will surprise you...

sorta a DD, trick flow twisted wedge come in 170cc, CNC-ported 185cc, and CNC-ported 205cc. but some people said the 205's would have high end hp but not really low end torque.....i want this combo to go 11.5 in the 1/4. i dont want any bigger cam than that because its street driven.....if i do the 205's should i get the edelbrock super victor or Jr. victor intake also??? help me out

dont want afr, got my mind set on TF
