I’ve got a 86 la 360 in my 72 dart wanna do a top end build on it is it worth it to do heads a cam with the stock 8.what ever compression ratio can I get that to a decent number without getting in to the bottom half
Top end Job. A fresh valve Job will provide extra pressure on the old rings, accelerating power loss and oil consumption Have you done a dry, wet, or leakdown Compression test on the motor.??
If your bottom end is in good shape, not worn out, you’ll be OK. Do a compression test and look at your cylinder wear a second state of cylinder wall. Check the taper.
