Opinions on set-up!

Burn'nRubber · June 3rd, 2008, 07:44 PM

Im getting ready to start tearing my old heads off and swapping them for a set of gt40p heads, that have recieved a 3 angle valve job, mill, and upgraded springs. The heads have NOT been ported or fitted with oversize valves, because I didnt feel like putting a bunch of money in these heads. Im planning on running a Comp XE270HR cam. Here are the specs: 270 / 276 - .512 / .512 lift. All of this topped off with the my edelbrock performer intake. Sound like a decent combo? Think the stock 19lbers are going to be enough?

Thanks

Thanks guys, any ideas of what I should expect from this combo? Id like to see 12s with some good rubber.

even if your suspension is set up for drag and you still will probably need some help like maybe i don't know a 75 or so shot of nitrous oxide and a good set of slicks? i don't know though
