Ideally, the camshaft is the very last component to be selected for your engine combo.
What is an "isky intake?" What is the part number of the pistons? What can you tell us about the cylinder heads? What is the application of this engine?

I think he's using a set of std D3ve-a2a heads from elsewhere here Paul, but good question on the "Isky" intake. never seen a Dual Quad Isky intake for the 429-460. Probably made them, but must be the red headed step-child.
I have a cam, and lifters, I'm pulling, haven't yet, from the engine that came in the Moo boat when I bought it. Told by PO (And I beleive him), only ran 20 minutes on the water (Was broke in on a bench), before it hydrualic'd because the putz ran both water outlets to the OT headers and did not use the valve and install a second O/B dump. (Looks like it folded #1 rod like a taco).
It's supposed to be a Comp Cams 268H, But again I cannot confirm this until I pull the engine completely down. Been having too much fun in my free time on the water, lol. Also cannot confirm it's condition, or specs, without a lathe, but I'd bet it's OK.
Then again, listen to Paul, He'll get you headed in the right direction as far as the best combination for what you want.

Lemme know on the carbs, taking up space in the garage right now, and in my way (As is everything else). I got a bunch of slot wall to go in there and need to clear out as much as possible to put the sheit up! (Don't ask, work retail, this stuff just falls in your lap. Once did my garage in Ohio, before the divorce, looked like a friggin Radio Shack store, but was cool as hell for hanging shit!)

How much on carbs need a set for my 427 FE H- M cross ram, And water pump plate for a for 460 v drive. :banghead:

Given what you and your boys just did Elwood, Send me your addie and I'll ship 'em to ya. Not perfect, but good rebuildable carbs. (came off a running Tunnel rammed 460 a couple years ago). I decided to, and did, go bigger.
I have a Harmin Water pump plate for a jet drive, no provision for water pump tho? That help?
