Any specific camshaft/intake/carb setup recommended?
The engine is a 1993 SBC 350 out of a Pick-up. Right now, I am converting it to a carb set-up with a Elderbrock 600 CFM carb and Elderbrock Performer RPM intake. I'm also adding a set of headers. The rest of the engine will remain bone stock. There are so many different cam profiles available, I'm not sure which one to get! Once again, any help is greatly appreciated!

Why not stick with the fuel injection? You can get a wire harness from Howell and have a perfect running engine that is computer controlled. I don't however know if it will all fit as low as you want. If it's too tall you can go to an older throttle body style that is no taller than the carb setup. I can even burn you the chip if needed.
I converted my 71 Chevy truck to FI and would never think about a carburetor again. That should be a roller cam engine. If you must carb stick with a Holley but for the same price you can run FI Good Luck! |
