I have inherited a 351w that had 60k on it and it was rebuilt in like '89...it was in a 1979 t-bird ...my dad rebuilt the engine and put only 900 miles on it and the car started on fire, since then the engine has been sitting on a stand in our garage and i finally started doing something about it....i think the fire might have damaged some of the shit on it......it needs an intake, waterpump, distributor, carb, etc...
anyways....i was gonna put new valve seals in the heads and new head gaskets and i was thinking about putting a different cam in it, seeing as the one thats in there is stock...id like to beef it up a bit and make it worth while...im gonna put it in my 73 mav...
any suggestions what i should use for a cam, intake, or roller rockers or anything like that? or should i just leave the heads alone and put the new valve seals in it?
thanks for the info ahead of time ...i appreciate it...
btw...i have a 302 in it right now...everythings pretty much stock...
i know ill start breaking shit once i put the bigger motor in it...:)
