That's a nice torque number at 2500!
My stock 340 actually has a smaller cam than stock...at .204 / .214 and has a ton of lo end torque.Pulls hard from 800 rpm up and it just may work with the .294"s
we'll see?
To be fair I only got to drive it for a week with a trip permit when I bought it don't know how well he had the timing and carb setup, but seem soft under 2000 rpm.
