I was looking at camshafts online, and I read on the poston site:
"1975 and later V6 engines require that the guides be cut down on camshafts with door lifts above .420". "
Is this correct? Edelbrock makes no mention of it in the instructions for their Performer plus cam which makes .448in (int) / .472 (exh) of lift.
I have 8445 heads on there now, anyone know what valve lift they'll be good to without machine work?
Not really an essential question, just kinda curious.
Also I was wondering if anyone could suggest cams to consider. I've looked at the offerings from Comp Cams, Voodoo, Poston, Isky, Elgin Industries Pro-Stock and Edelbrock. I'll be blatantly honest here, I don't know which one would work the best.
I'm just looking for something to wake up the motor. Headers are on now, CR will probably remain stock, rearend will get swapped for a 3.23 - 3.73, and a new stall converter will go in (over the summer when I'm doing the cam work).
I searched and couldn't find anything. If you guys just want to give me some links to read I've got nothing but time.
Thanks Again,
Will
