[QUOTE="K@rlos, post: 603056, member: 4304"] In my opinion the limiting factors with cam selection are gonna be the single port head, single carb selection. You can only get so much from them. An engine is essentially an air pump, the more air/fuel goes in the power and torque it will make and obviously a twin port head will flow more, even more so with twin carbs. If your set on using a single port head with a single carb then stick with a stock cam as they compliment each other perfectly. If you had tp heads and twin carbs then I’d say an Engle w100 or W110, I fitted a 1776 with ported stock heads, a 110, stock ratio rockers and twin 36’s to Stu C’s bus. It is a superb thing to drive, pulls from idle like a train. Any decent engine builder will agree with me when it’s about components that compliment each other not whats the biggest etc. [/QUOTE]
