i plan to convert my 87 maf into carb. need help with cam seection, also would like to run 1.7 rockers please advice on manufacture and part # for push rods that work with 1.7 rockers and your choice of cam. summit and jegs do not recomend 1.7 but have seen post with 1.7 rockes. motor will be 347 manely alu.rod trick flow forgedpistons eagle forged crank, block and headswell be decked. and air gap intake machined to fit.compression aruond 11:1, no forced all motor.

 

looks a lot like my dream setup <IMG src=smileys/smiley2.gif border="0">. the only differances are i want trick flow track heat heads andi will run 1.6 rockers. i suggest you look into aftermarket heads cause the stockers (even ported stockers) will hold you back a ton of HP. for the carb i will go to demon andi will get the edelbrock air gap manifold (like you will).</P>


trick flow sells pushrods (both adjustable and to length) so i suggest you go there for those. for the cam, it all depends on what you want. where do you want the power?? </P>


and i dont know howlong that stock block will hold up to the 347. if you put some miles on itthe block will suffer. </P>

 

i have edelroch heads and want the power between 4000 - 6800. plan to use billet 4 bolt mains, block will be machined to fit.

 

cool. do youhave asummit mag?? if not, get one. there are TONS of cams. you can also get a cam custom cut for what you want, you might want to look into that.

 

plan to have cam costum gruond at Schneider but dont want to sound like a rookie when asking for a good cam, and get crap for a enormis price for it, need good # for lift, duration stuff like that.

 

well this won't be a street car with the alum rods....you need to find your cam first as some base lift on 1.7 other 1.6's...I'm fond of crower,lunati cams,crane are good to...but I would need alot more info on the engine and what it's used for

 

this is a good combo
331 or 347
flat tops
afr's 205
575-595 cam
victor jr intake
700dp carb
long tubes

 

not astreet car. will use 5.315H-beam rods not alu. flat top 347 forged pistons from trick flow, CAM?, push rods?, got 1.6can use again instead of 1.7. would like alot of mid rangepower, max RPM at lest 7500, edelbroch preformer heads, getting them ported to max and then polished. been waiting for your info Vfast need help.

 

i suggest getting a custom cam, it will be worth it <IMG src=smileys/smiley2.gif border="0">
