    Also, run a 1050 dominator with soft touch linkage on any engine from 289 inches up to 350 inches... and be sure to buy the biggest hydraulic roller cam your $$$ can buy, dont worry about stock heads, they will do just fine...

    It will SCREAM...

    I'm building a 460 Ford with stock E7TE heads. Do you think this engine will work with well my Comp Cams Xtreme energy XR294HR? I'm thinking the Holley 2 barrel off my old 78 mustang should top things off perfectly too.

    Is that the same as a 3/4 race cam? If so it should work great!
