Yea, not sure what I've bought with Speedmaster heads but honestly they seem alright so far... I did go about 10lbs over what their torque said and using their stud kit as well....the engine-airlocked first few mins it ran got up in Temp but then It cooled off and seems fine even few months...

Hey Guys, I've got a set of Speedmaster heads on my 360 1972' block.. obviously non roller block, everything pretty well bolted up without issues even alternator... I did have comp cam springs installed/and the retainers to but I used the Speedmaster valves.. I noticed the valves are lil bit...

Hello again Sireland67, well that dual point distributor is definitely rebuildable but i didn't even realize that particular Accel Distributor cap and rotor arn't available anywhere....local speed shops & even Summit Racing...but no luck... do you still have your old cap n rotor around...

Your right! I'm just going to continue with the current plan and see what happens... I'm sure it will be Hell of a lot more then that 273 2bbl single exhaust was....lol. ok thanks man...

Ok sireland67 I will do that!!

That 318 engine is out of a 1976 Van .... so your probley right pistons way down in the hole... last A body i built ended up with a 426 Wedge motor and that was fun and easy! Tryna to find a mild combo for this 318 is becoming very difficult... but I'm not going Big Block this time....

Ok, I see.. well, maybe 450" cam is to big then if my heads aren't going to allow me much compression.... sounds like to much money to blow on 273 small valve heads anyways... I've got some 915 J heads that are in good shape but those also will kill my compression on a stock 318... like...

Now my thing is selecting a Cam that will be respectful but not to big.. everything I find says .450" or so - not much more then that.. maybe a cheap Summit Cam? The reviews are good ... Gotta buy springs to... I'm leaning toward that ... anyway that's my deal so far...
