I'm working on Dom's (blue Chevelle on TC) 396. He forgot his password so I'll post the details for him.
Looking for a STREET cam for this stock 396 (specs below). Hydraulic or Solid. Car will see 95% street miles. Goal is lots of low end. Must be a stoplight to stoplight animal BUT must be able to handle some Highway trips... several hours at 70 MPH. Hydraulic is perferred but not opposed to a solid if it gives a better punch.
68 CE Replacement 396, Low Miles, stored over 25 years and recently ressurected. History unknown, but is running well with good compression, no oil consumption. Pings like mad on 93 with the small stock cam.
Heads are 1965 206's with shim gaskets. With those small chamber heads, the shims, and the small dome 396 piston...I'm guessing about 10-10.5 CR. The cranking compression is at 190-200 max.
Aluminum 180* Dual Plane Manifold
Holley 3310, 750 Carb
Electronic Ignition
Vehicle is a 72 'velle
TH400 with a 2200 Stall
10 Bolt BOP, gear will be changed to a 3.23
Rear tire is 255/60/15 which measures to about 27" Tall.
Looking fo a cam that can be swapped in without degreeing and will not have any piston-vlave clearance issues.
Thanks in Advance.
