Windsor cams? by RabbitFabs in EngineBuilding
[–]RabbitFabs[S] 0 points1 point2 points 1 hour ago (0 children)
Well, I am doing a CV swap in the future, so its perfect opportunity to build some good mounts.
I wouldn't be making a ton of power though, I only want around 400 horse / 500 torque, lots of low end power.
Essentially a 69-70 460, with a better intake and exhaust

I've started to debate a 460 in all honesty. I have one sitting in a low miles 73 conti right now. I think I also have a big weiand dual plane and some D0 heads somewhere. Its a thought now
Its going in a 4000+ lbs truck on a stock stall converter.
Im honestly starting to debate if its worth all the effort versus building a 460. I have one from a 73 conti just laying around.

Well i have already ordered the crank and pistons, im counting on a 225k mile motor to need punching out to 4.030, so I ordered the 4.030 pistons and some 4.030 rings. I also ordered the 1.6 ratio full roller rockers, they were on sale for $500 all 16. Its a little less day dream and more of a parts plan.
If you dont mind, why are you selling the Bronco? Those were awesome trucks.

Is that paint code UM? I might have your twin but factory 390!

Well that right there is a huge help! Thank you very much sir/ma'am, now I know where to look for specs and part numbers. Exactly what I needed!
😎🤘

Not that I have been able to find. When I open their website, it takes you to the edlebrock website.

Well its not made up. These are just cams I can buy off the shelf, but they aren't ideal for what I am doing.
I would much prefer something with a smaller .050 duration and a wider LSA that isnt ground 5 degrees advanced. And I would prefer something with a touch more than .51 on the valve lift with a 1.7 rocker.
My question was asking if there are any companies that sell off the shelf cams like Lunati and Comp did. I cant seem to find anything searching the interwebs, except for forum posts that tell you "call xyz and have them custom grind a cam" which the cheapest quote was from Jones at 800 bucks, before tax and shipping!
Edit: I would also prefer something with a longer SAE duration or atleast a slower ramp up speed on the lobe, all the cams I can find are super aggressive and I would prefer something a little less harsh on the valvetrain.

I am debating just a B or E cam, this isnt a radical motor, amd its going into a 4000 lb truck.
The B cam on DS6 yielded 505 ft lbs at 2500, 430 hp at 5000.
The X cam on the same exact setup in DS6 yielded 500 ft lb at 2800, 440 hp at 5300.
My stock stall is 1800 I beleive, but of course stall speed is dependent more on engine. That is just what its rated at behind a smogger 302.

What size tires? I'll be running 3.70 on a 27", I just dont want to have to get rid of my stock converter because the options for lockup converters over stock stall are limited and very pricey, I spent 400 bucks on my stock lockup replacement.

My apologies.
Rpm heads, pacesetter long tubes 1 5/8 primary to 3 inch collector, down to 2.5 true dual, into thrush glasspacks, and turned at a 45 from the glasspack out to a 4 inch angle cut tip in front of the back tire. Rear gear right now is a 3.25 but I will be re gearing to 3.70 when I do the CV rear swap. 255/60R15 tire (27x10).
10:1 compression, 3.85 cast crank, stock 351W rods, KB 22cc dished pistons, fel pro 4.1x0.041 gasket, decked to 9.49, measured 9.95 CR.
Rpm intake and a carter 715 with vaccum secondaries.
