Whos camshaft are some of you guys using? what kind of rpms are the 305 good for? does it make since to use the tool lifters??

On the lifters there was no difference in my 283 other than i was scared to death one was going to shatter. I have shubecks


I really appreciate you racers that respond as i am running out of time to make div 2 opener. I have a ride but really want to get my wagon finished. I know finding 70 plus horsepower is a shot in the dark for a idiot like myself but i am gonna give it my best
You'd be surprised what a GREAT pair of 416 heads can do for you.
I had Shubeks on my ol 305 motor with no problems.
I had a Bullit cam, not sure of any specifics.
My motor had flat top pistons with the small cam.
You run a wagon, so do you have flat top pistons or other ???
PLUS, make sure you have a Very Good Carb. Very Important.

Dish piston, is that what u have ??
