My 76 has a 350 with a crate block mated to a TH350, purchased in 2004 by the previous owner. I think the 290HP model as I can't get my over-sized skull in there to get the cast number off of it. It drives OK now but want to refresh it. Also periodic vapor lock issue but I bought a phenolic spacer and new fuel lines to see how that helps and will re-route the lines.
In any event, I did a compression test and all 8 came back in the 145+ range so that seemed OK?
I would like to yank it out and replace the cam, heads, intake, and carb (possibly, have a 1406 now). Goal is more HP but also more torque for my 35's. This will be a DD without any off-road, factory axles on it now.
Any recommendations for cam, heads, and intake? EFI isn't out of the question just have to decide if I want to run a return line back to the tank.
Goals are more HP, torque, and experience
