I ordered a 331 with a forged assembly. I am putting in a http://www.summitracing.com/search?keyword=35-310-8 cam and using my 170cc trick flow heads. I am having them pocket ported as well including port matched to my stealth intake. I will keep my new 670 street avenger carb and I am using a 10:1 piston
cam p/n 35-310-8

I would not run that cam in a carbureted set up, it is designed for a computer controlled car with EFI.

It will work just fine. The cam doesn't know if its efi or carb , it still does the same task.

I know the heads are a little small that is why I chose the cam I did. It should have a ton of low end power and pull hard until about 5800rpm. I am going to break it in and play with it a bit then add a novi root style supercharger with 6-8 pounds of boost.
I figured if I boost it a little I will no longer be limited by a smaller head flow, at this time I may add a larger carb as well.

Mjr46,
I changed my cam selection to the motor sports x303, I an not financially impaired. I have no problem spending the money. I just don't want to waste what I already have.
I am open to recommendations and the reasoning behind them. I have contacted two different cam suppliers about custom grinds and both were less than helpful. I understand they have put years into their work. I appreciate their knowledge and want to use them but I am not going to make an order and give a cc number with no idea of what direction it will go.
$300-$400 for a cam is no biggie. I'm happy to pay it but with added price I want the customer service too. Something the guys out their I have contacted lack. If I have issues before I buy, how is gonna be once my product is done and I have questions?

You should not run a blower or supercharger on a 10:1 engine without heavy mods and high octane gas at the very least.
If you need to reduce compression and you already have the parts you can buy thicker head gaskets from Cometic.
