Not sure what you ultimately want to achieve with the motor...aka..top end, cruiser, drag racer, tire frier, etc. Regardless, give Terry McKinney a shout at Roane County Engine Service. He can lead you in the right direction with cam and specs once you tell him the goal of you motor.....Good Luck

Hey Bill. Long time no see. I hope you are able to get your back together faster than me. Seems like we were talking about going with a stroker. Did you go that way? Should be lots of fun when you get it all back together.
