Looking for BBC intake suggestions

[Aaron Keown]

As far as making a short street cruise I don't think it would be a problem,except for the gas mileage.Most of the superstock guys drive their cars up to the staging lanes and back to the pits after a run.If you did make a street cruise I would be sure to run the lash when finished,but that is something I would think you have to do currently with the cam you have now.As far as springs go a comp 947 would probably be the best choice,we also have many sets of those that instead of having 300 lb @ 2.100 they have 280 lb on the seat,they work great on bracket cars.Do you know what you valve clearance is with the cam you have now?

Edelbrock Victor Jr. , worked well for me. I ran 454 +.030, Speed pro 12.5 to open ch piston, .688 lift roller cam w/ dur somewhere around 270 and in 3100 lb Camaro went 6.60's. Intake was box stock, carb was 850 cfm, TH 400 trans 4200 stall. Heads were stock GM #990 LS7 castings w/2.19 &1.88 valves. I had been using box stock Holley Strip Domonator intake but wanted more/crisper bottom end.Headers were Hooker Super Comp 2 1/8".
Ran a best of 108 mph in 1/8 mile with that particular motor. 60' times were in the high 1.40's, using slicks.
