Hi all,

I put my car on the dyno and was somewhat disappointed. My 1969 351W only put 255 Max RWHP and 307 Max RWTrq. The funny thing is that the HP begins to fall off at 4400RPM.

I recurved the Distributor and that seemed to help wake the Sluggish 351w up from 2500RPM up to 6000RPM. I went to the Drag strip and ran 104@13.3 1/4mile. I could not hook on street tires.

The motor has an Edelbrock Performer Intake and slightly ported heads, Flat top Pistons and a Reed Racing Solid Lift Cam with 290 Duration and .490 Lift, 750 Demon(not so happy with the Demon) with MSD and Mallor Unilight.

I was going to buy some Edelbrock RPM heads to improve things but I also thought I may go to a hydraulic Lift Cam. I love the sound of my car(it beats the ground as they say) and would want a hydraulic cam with similar sound and but better performance. I have a 3.73 gear and want to run the motor in tthe 2000 - 6000 RPM range.


Any cam recommendations are appreciated.
