Small Block Chevy Help

69camz28 · 11-20-2010, 10:04 AM

I'm getting ready to build a 427 small block Chevy. I'm ordering the short block from Nyes Automotive in Indiana. It's a Dart Little M block, 6" Eagle H Beam Rods, Eagle forged crank, & JE forged flat top pistons. It will be about 10.35:1 compression.

I am planning on running AFR Eliminator 220cc heads. I am looking for suggesstions on solid roller cam specs, and intake/carb suggestions, along with convertor suggestions.

The engine will be going in a 69 Camaro that weighs about 3325lbs with me in it. It has a Strange S-60 (Dana 60) with 3.73s, and a TH350. I run the Calvert springs/Caltracks, Calvert shocks up front. The car is licensed and insured, but will not be driven on the street very much (probably less than 200 miles/yr)

I'm looking to turn something in the 10.50-10.60 range on the engine. I have a N20 kit that I can use to spray it a little, but it will not see more than a 150hp shot. I'm hoping this could get me into the high 9s occassionally. Any help/suggesstions would be greatly appreciated, I plan on getting the ball rolling Monday.
