My set up is as follow
-73 block punched to .060
-73 049 heads all stock excepts for the springs I end up putting on
-Speed pro 20cc domed pistons
-Edelbrock performer 2.0 intake for now will I get the money for a torquer or victor jr.
-holley 800cfm double pumper
And all this will be turning a berkley 12jc with an a-2 impeller

Ok so I'm getting ready to start assembly on my motor but I have this annoying feeling that the guy at isky cams was wrong I have a 280 mega cam that they helped me select but they said I would be fine running it with my stock valve spring... Here is where I am loosing sleep this cam has .565 lift will my springs really be able to keep up with this I have 049 heads with dual valve springs and I was not planing on turning this motor over 5-5300 help please if I need the spring I wanna order them now as not to hang up my build I wanna get out on the water befor the season is cometly over lol

I am going to be running exhaust logs with over transom... And I know the intake isn't the best choice but its what I have for now I am planning on switching to a victor jr and some 115cc aluminum head when I get the money together in a few months

ok to start i have a 76 hawaiian daycruiser project now the stringers are 24 inches the widest mounts i can find for the 460 is 21 inches and i cant use the old mounts cause to say it nicely they are a true hack job and pretty scary so what i wanted to do is thicken the stringers with wood, bolt the wood to the stringers and fiberglass them then the mount would fit correctly... would this work? sorry if this is a stupid question
