Stupid cam shaft idea? Serious question
What would be the expected results of taling
a basic 454/330 8.5:1 flat top pistons (stock) motor with improved breathing - intake manifold, heads (781's with 2.25/1.88 valves), good exhaust stock cam, running well installing a good used set of 1.8 roller rockers, again changing nothing else. Really interested to hear, anybody else here try this? |
Stock sucks.
|
So do jet engines but neither have 1.8:1 roller rockers
|
Why even bother? I don't believe you will gain anything but a headache.
|
at least you can use the heads and intake on the new motor:whistle:
|
Sell the roller rockers and use the 150 bucks for fuel.
|
The first half of the title of original post, is the answer
|
20HP, maybe..
|
Seriously, there are a lot of decent running reliable older 454/330 out there, everybody says to change the cam, i was wondering if this may be a cheap easy way of trying to improve on what everybody knows is a major restriction to these.
Not everybody knows how or wants to or can even pull motor and change cam. Anybody can change rockers. |
