That or get a sheet metal intake from jegs or that box thing from comp cams. You're going to have no bottom end with your set up so i say get some gnarly gears.

Say I did go with the AFR 165's with 58cc, how would the Stage 2 cam work. What kind of numbers will I see. I am shooting for a 7.9 and the eighth.

Don't you need notched pistons for 185's to clear??

No, the pistons that come in the 306 will clear.

depends on what .030 pistons he gets for the 306. large valve reliefs are common on oversized pistons.
