Default Re: Head and cam

I would go with some 6.0L TEA S2 heads...with the 73cc chambers, that will drop you to 9.3-9.5:1 compression....I would pick something under 220 for duration for a blower cam...I'm using a 214/218 .540/.550 114lsa cam in my 372 motor, that would work well for your setup too....you might need to up the pulley though, you will most likely lose boost w/the drop in compression and the better flow...

How does your cam sound? Is the lope very noticeable? I am having my engine re-built with all forged internals and I am switching cams just kind of curious because I am going to a split pattern cam similar to yours. I was actually thinking of going with 218/224 .540/.550 114lsa... Just wondering how it will all sound when I am done!
