370 CI Questions-Help me out please!! Hi Guys!
-I have a few questions for anybody who has any experience
with the above combination.
-I am unsure whether to use stage 2 or stage 3 heads and
what head would be most suited (ls6, 6.0L, I have a pair of 6.0L heads
for a core)
-Also help with a cam would be good too
-What is the best way to choose pistons? I know that Diamond
is releasing a set designed specifically for this setup. Do I decide on
heads first and then get the pistons that are needed (valve reliefs,
compression height etc.)
I am surprised that there isn't more interest in this combo.
The way I am thinking is that since the shortblock is fairly
budget minded more money can go into a really good set
of heads.
Any help or comments would be really appreciated.
Sorry to ask so many questions in one post.
Thanks in advance,
Dave

Re: 370 CI Questions-Help me out please!! Good luck.I have asked about this combo many times and never get any response.I think the same as you. It would be cheap,strong,rev good and make real good power and most importantly be a good NOS combo.I want to put my stage 2 GTPs on a 370 shortblock with a big reverse split.I think that 460 rw with a broad curve would be easy.
Good luck
