350 roller build

I have been doing some thinking and # crunching. I think I am gonna be able to pick up a pair of Canfields for $840 bare. I already have the valve train for them. As far as cam goes, I`m thinking something around Compcams hr282r. I`m gonna go down to Bullit Racing Cams and get them to custom spec a cam very similar to the 282r. Get them to concentrate as much lowend power and still be able to pull up to 6500 RPM. I used to have the old 282s cam in a 350 and loved that cam. It was very responsive. I think with better flowing heads, lighter rotating assembly and lighter valve train, I`ll have a very nice screamer pushing 450 hp and hopefully I can acheive 400 ft lbs at or below 3500 RPM.



As soon as I`m able to order the heads, gotta sell a few more parts, then I`m gonna do some math measuring things and drop the block off to have it decked. Would like to get the quench as tight as possible and get the SCR around 10.5 and DCR around 8.3
