Re: Green Beater

Been having some issues with the truck here lately. Mainly idle issues plus my brakes suck and i am going to admit why.

I chose way to big of a camshaft for the engine.
231 duration @.050 and .480 valve lift.
engine only has 9 to 1 compression.

I knew better and even told myself not to do it but i already had it so figured what the heck. Now i need to pick another cam and do a weekend swap...hopefully with out having to pull engine to do it.
Recommendations are greatly welcomed

rest of engine as follows
9 to 1 compression
stock bore
2 bolt main stock bottom end
1992 swirl port heads
dual plane intake
hei dist.
headers

th350 trans w/3.08 rear gears
