Getting the most out of a low comp 440

EDIT: posted this before I saw the two above posts.

My ears are still wide open...like I said,

"I'd like to learn how to specifically match the various specs of the came to the specifics of the vehicle and rest of drivetrain. All the articles I have found explain the various terms, etc., but info on matching them up is pretty ambiguous due to the many different possible combinations and uses"

....and that info is also how some people make their living, and they may or may not be very free with it. I run basically a huge repair/fab shop, if it's metal we work on it, so I understand.

I spoke to Schneider this afternoon, and he said once I get my my combo figured out, he can grind me up one just for me. Answered any questions I could think to ask.

Also talked to a 727 guy, he said stock stall is probably 1600-1800, and for a perf cam, I should probably go 2500....gotta make the whole package work! I do know that much, just need to figure out the details in matching it all up and decide exactly how far I want to go...how far I can get on my labor, no $, and how far I want to go after that with $ for other people's parts and labor.
