I recently had a Lifter fail and wiped a lobe off my cam and decided that since the motor is now tore down, It is time to do some serious upgrades.
Engine:
1969 340
Stock Steel crank and rods
.030 over KB Sivolite Pistons
Rotating assemble appears to be solid and I do not plan on changing anything.
I am going back with Lunati Voodoo 10200704
According to the Edelbrock site I need the 60179 Heads (Open Chamber) but after doing a search here, I read where someone with a similar set up was advised by several people to go with 60779 (Closed Chamber) Heads.
The edelbrock site makes it sound as if I need the Open Chamber because of piston clearance. What am I missing here? Why would the closed chamber be better and should I be concerned about clearance if I use them? Thanks..
