    Budget conscious Performance Upgrades

    try 34 total so just set timing at 10* at idle. it might even be detonating at that much timing. the 474 cam has 232 @ .050 plenty big for low 13's. the torker is hurting low end the rpm performer intake with a bigger cfm carb would be a better combo. 26 inch tire for the strip would help too.

    Camshafts: All else being equal, what does an increase in LIFT have on performance?

    Hughes cams are not as fast ramp as comp cams. Hughes cams have a very high lift to duration that is why I shy away from 1.6 rockers. comp cams have a very narrow spread between duration @ .050 and advertise duration more narrow than the Hughes cams. I ran a lot of both cams and Mopar cams over...

    Camshafts: All else being equal, what does an increase in LIFT have on performance?

    yes at a higher rpm you lose lift but at low and mid lift you need to minus the lash off the lift of a solid lifter cam. solid 500 lift minus 15-20 for valve lash = 480 - 485 lift and that is for a tight lash cam.

    383 Rebuild - New Piston Suggestions

    sorry i don't see any pistons. I would want a light weight forged piston with thin ring pistons with valve notches giving me 9.4 - 9.6 compression without decking the block or milling the heads more than .010 just to square it up if needed and a quench of .035 to .050 and running iron heads so...

    Camshafts: All else being equal, what does an increase in LIFT have on performance?

    I would not run 1.6 rockers with a Hughes cam unless you're just going to do 1/4 miles.

    Camshafts: All else being equal, what does an increase in LIFT have on performance?

    I like high lift as long as the head can use it. there is no downside with lift it helps low end, mid range and top end not like duration which there is always a compromise when going more duration.

    the last engine i did out of a 1967 imperial had the cross. I told the machine shop to check the crank he said it was fine I told him to check it again and found the number 7 journal was under sized.

    one of the crank connecting rod journals had to be turned down to get to specs. they did that to save the crank from the scrap pile.

    75 cc heads would give you 10.43 compression that would work with alum heads

    383 Rebuild - New Piston Suggestions

    9.2 compression with aluminum heads will like having about 8.4 compression with iron heads. need a 11 cc dome will give you 10.25 compression just right for the alum heads.
