540s heads and cams
Looking to upgrade my 540s. What aluminum heads are you guys running? And what’s the biggest camshafts I can go with EMI Thunder exhaust? “Water reversion” I don’t have a problem putting headers on if the cam and header combo is a decent increase..
It has ported steel heads now and a Crane hydraulic roller cams... Thanks! |
