350 Cam Swap

[modhunt]

Ok so most of you know I haven't done much with engines but I'd like to swap cams from one engine to the new(new to me) one ive read a bit about it but the most ive dont with an engine is pulling the heads of and everything on top of the heads are putting cams in hard and do yall think id be able to do it @Bent77

It’s not hard, but it does require some patience

Before you get going, let’s make sure the cam you want will match your cylinder heads/compression/intake as they work as a system

Everything is same the pistons are different brand but they have the exact same specs same intake heads etc

 

[Bent77]

was more concerned that the lift and duration match the compression and flow values for the heads.
Its easy to throw a cam in there and have the power band completely screwed up because the parts and pieces don't work well with each other.

Flat top pistons?

What part number cylinder head and camshaft?

Flat top with 4 relif my heads pictured edelbrock 7501 rpm intake specs on the pistons unknow to me currently and current cam specs unknown with a 700cfm Holley off-road carb

Well hopefully you have some numbers for the heads and the cam, so that they will match up well together

They do match well together my power curve is good I make 340 or so hp and 310 or so torque

I'd like to see some video of it strapped down to a dyno.

I’d love to dyno it I mean no where are these def. numbers but it does make mid to low 300

So no specs other than an edelbrock performer RPM intake, but you make 340 horse?

Alright I don't know the exact specs on everything but it does make low to mid 300's and believe me if you want or don't

Hey man I was just joking... It’s @79rustyk10 you got to worry about! Lol!

Seriously if it makes good number great, I would like to have the 350 in our 77 make 300+ Sounds like basic parts you got. We want the recipe.

A lot of jokers on here.. it’s all good. Stick around!
