9" rear open diff

thanks eh!


I made a few assumptions here.

9:1 compression 2.02/1.60 valve heads. (I used the flow numbers that I got off of my heads)

also is the performer plus the same as the performer/a311 cam? I don't have my Edelbrock catalog handy. cam specs 204/214 @ 0.050 448/472 lift

RPM HP TQ

2000 145 379 3000 221 386 4000 290 381 5000 308 324 6000 256 224

IMO it peaks out a little quick for my tastes so I went up a step in cam to the very common a332 profile cam specs 214/224 @ 0.050 472/496 lift

RPM HP TQ

2000 136 357 3000 212 372 4000 289 380 5000 328 345 6000 291 255

I see one big problem with your combo. Your stall converter doesn't match up at all with your cam and gear ratio. That cam is recommend for a stock to

+500 rpm converter which would put you in the 2000-2500 rpm range. Not to mention with only a 3.00 gear your converter won't be out of its stall rpms at cruising speeds which will cause for a lot of extra heat. Extra heat is a killer of transmissions.

other than your converter the rest of your parts look pretty good together and should make for a fun driver.

if you mean cylinder head valves- intake 1.9" exhaust 1.6"

compression is close to stock from what i found on the net im guessing

8.8:1

hope you can make sense of the cam info, got it straight off edelbrock site
