building new motor all stock with headers holly 670 street advenger carb edelbrock single plane torquer intake is only part's not stock new valves cam crank 30 over on block what would the hp be on this setup just want a good solid driver

 

I recommend getting a crane hi energy cam, itll help it breathe better, make more power. Id Imagine with that setup you might be around the 300 range, but that all depends on the heads, valve diameter, intake runner volume.
-P.

 

get a healthy cam and power will be in the 400 range go to books a million,barnes and noble etc and look for how to build ford v8s for max performance theres a cleveland build with 2v heads 9:1 compression and its 405hp

 

And you can get away with 10:1 CR depending on your cam. Just don't get too radical...the secret is in the cam.

 

my cleve had 10.2:1 i ran premium would ping once in a while. it would pull the front left tire off the ground with an open rear and 3:1 gears!! i would recommend some aussie heads if ur gonna build the engine up they are a lot less likely to detonante with the quench chamber!

 

my cam is a crane 272 524 the heads are 2v what size vavle shoud i get

 

thats the cam i used in my engine it has the bleed down lifter so it keeps ur idle streetable! worked good i wanted a little larger cam though for my app. i used the stock valves and one of them broke make sure ur using a one piece valve i had to have a cylinder sleeved because of this and buy a new piston!

 

mach1wade,
Are you sure about the intake you have? I didn't think edelbrock made a torquer for the v2 clevelands on the v4? I know they just started making the RPM air gap for the v2 clevelands.

Sounds like a good build, what trans do you have? I am planing a rebuild on my v2 cleveland this coming winter and I am looking at the Comp Magnum 270H cam Since it is advertised as the largest that can be used with a stock converter. Converters for an FMX tranny cost a ton and I just had the tranny rebuilt last spring with a new converter at that time.

 

Jes you will like that cam. I ran one in a 4V back around 1987, headers and a dual plane intake with a 750 carb will wake that thing up.

The current 2V has an XE274, once the car is back together I will let you know how well it does.

 

hey i got my doner motor a complete factory original 50000 mile using the lower end i got the heads,intake and carb,exhaust manifolds,distributer,air breather,for sale if anybody is going stock on a rebuild this motor came out of a 73 mustang also got vavle covers all or part what should i look for in price
