I am rebuilding my slant ....its a 1970 Slant six.
I want a new cam and lifter set but I do not understand cam numbers so good so what do you guys out there run and what is a good one to get.
the engine .....1970 slant six with a shaved .070 head and a decked block, bored .030 over and has a Clifford intake and header (4bbl.)
Transmission is a 4 speed from a 65 Barracuda
The car is a 1963 Plymouth valiant wagon and I plan to use some low gears ....either 3.55 or 3.91. Definitely not a race car, will be used on the streets, possibly tow a small pop up trailer and,/or a lawn mower trailer.
I don't care gas mileage and the 4 speed says the idle can be rough if need be, No power brakes or any kind of vacuum accessories at all
what is a good cam and where can I order one today .....GO!!!
I had suggestions before but nothing I could real world find and order today.
other question is if the head has been milled and block decked and all that good stuff, will I need custom pushrods or is there enough adjustment in the stock pushrods and rocker arms ??
I need new pushrods because I do not currently have any.....so any help on where to order today ....GO!!!
