Unexpected Engine Build
Over the winter I did a few things to my LX (Intake,TB, suspension,subframes,DRs,CAI,Fuel cell etc) and I planned on using this setup throughout the year with the stock engine. But to my surprise, I stumbled across a pair of 170cc Edelbrock Performer RPM heads for a SBF pretty cheap. They are set up for stud mount rockers and have 2.02/1.60 valves. What cam would you guys recommend? It will have a Cobra U/L intake, 70mm TB, 73mm C&L MAF, 24lb injectors, K&N CAI, and 4.10s(along with the new heads of course). Car is a 5-speed with 27in tall tires and will be driven on the street and strip. The bottom end is just freshened up. I honestly wasnt planning on doing this right now but life threw me a bone

A custom will yeild more power and drivability. Check out www.camshaftinnovations.com
The last cam I put in my 351C (in the 68) was a custom ground from a place in Michigan and works well. Im just undecided on using an OTS or cutom ground for this which will have quite abit less hp. Would it be worth the extra cost to go custom ground? Ive really been out of the loop for a long time but "in my day", custom ground was the only way to go.
something like my cam would work good on and off the track also the comp xe series like already mentioned as i have a friend with a 351 and a 408 and both with xe series comp cams in them and they work good

it sounds pretty good at idle and like i said it pulls like a **** from about 25-2800 rpm
