Re: 5.7 Vortec basic upgrades

The RamJet 350 / HT 383 cam will wake that engine up a bit. I'm running HEI and a Quadrajet, but mine should be putting out about 330 HP and 400 ft/lbs torque.

As far as mods, my machinist put in springs from a regular old 350. He said the spring height was OK, but the Vortec springs are lighter (less spring pressure).
