    So I got a 406 that I’m building, I’ve got all stock bottom end, flat top pistons with valve reliefs. I was going to put 906 vortec heads but I think my compression ratio would be to high 11-12.1 . Im using an edelbrock performer RPM intake. I’m trying to build a fun daily street/strip car. Any recommendations on a good cam and cylinder head combo for this type of build?

    Sweet motor! I have a 11.0 383 stroker with a lunati 243/248 voodoo solid roller, holly strip dominator intake, and a sniper x flow system. According to the fuel flow, it’s making around 570-580. Looks like you might have picked up a little knock at peak torque, I’m running a Holley duel sync distributor, it would would be nice to keep timing at 34 around peak tq then bring it back to 36 at other areas of the rpm range

    @toomanymodz 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I bet a Performer RPM intake would provide tons more mid-range power without sacrificing a whole lot on the top end. Also, the 195cc heads are holding that engine back. The peak HP should occur well north of 6k rpm, given the cid and cam profile.

    • @KingJT80
      @KingJT80 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      a 242/250 mid 500's lift isnt THAT big for a 400. thats about right for that size head and CID hed need more cam AND head like 250/255 .600 lift and the 210 heads. then that thing will make 575 or more at almost 6500+ probably and a 195 head takes a 1205 gasket right? dont most SBC dual planes take the next step down? and its EFI so the single is probably doin good.

    Flat "crappet"? Yes, you do have to be part chemist these days to stay old school. Do your homework folks...Mobil1 [for example] has 9 different balances of zinc and phosphorous amongst their offerings last I checked. Only 2 of 30 formulations are acceptable off track as I see it: 15w-50 being the go-to, and the 4T [10w-40] being a backup if you can't find the first. Twenty of the 30 offerings are so low, I guarantee you wipe a flat tappet cam in 'buy and hope' mode.
