302 for Street Use

Ganymede · #1 (**permalink**) 05-25-2003, 04:24 AM

Hi All,

Can anyone recommend a good cam, valve train, inlet manfold, carb combination for me that will run well in a 302 Aussie?

I am mainly looking for good reliability and good driveability, but would like crisp acceleration and as reasonable fuel consumption as is possible (yeah I know - I want it all). The car will only be used on the street.

Cheers

Dave.

Sounds good, but why the 270s? What about the 268h?

What sort of power do you think that setup would produce (assuming everything else is stock)?

i dont know about hp,but i think solid cams make the engine sound great , i would never go back to hydraulic
there is nothing wrong with the 268h
