Re: gettin ready for teardown

thats about right for a decent machine shop, but it all depends on whether or not the engine has major problems

Re: gettin ready for teardown

lt1 cam would work but there wouldnt be any point. You can find a much better cam than that.

Re: gettin ready for teardown

take a look at comp's XFI line, they have a bunch for TPI. and since you have a 73 block, it's not a roller motor, it has to be flat tappet.
