AFR 205cc heads, 2.080 int./ 1.600 exh. (3,500-8,000)
Edelbrock Jr. Vic intake (3,500-7,500)
Comp cam, hydraulic flat tappet, .519/.523 lift, 110 lobe separation, 230/236 duration @ 50 (1,800-6,000)

3500 - 8000 for a 302 = 3000 - 6858 for a 351
3500 - 7500 for a 302 = 3000 - 6430 for a 351
1800 - 6000 for a 302 = 1543 - 5143 for a 351
Round up the upper cam range to 5200 rpms......isn't that "too conservative"?....and this is only using one of the factors you should look at when choosing the correct parts. There is more to configuring a good combo, than just looking at RPM ranges, you could either "buy, install and check".....and reconfigure it once you don't achieve your goals ($$$$).....orrrrr........

.....I guess I've been a few of the lucky ones to have a X303 cam with 1.72 rockers (.583" total lift) and use it as a daily driver for 12+ yrs. then......
