Engine Build For 1970 Duster
I have a 1970 Duster with mini tubs. I have been waiting a long time to get to the engine build. I have been collecting parts for many tears and wish to use what I have to have a good street car. The target for me is in the neighborhood of 400 HP. So here is the set up. Automatic 727, 8 3/4 .373 gears. I plan to purchase a EFI kit which I haven't decided on. 1972 Cast iron "J" heads with 2.02 / 1.60), TTI headers with 2.5 exhaust, As for the engine, this is where I would like some guidance. Here is what I have: 1972 360 block, stock pistons, competition cam with the following markings (265DEH-10 YA5688), roller rockers. I also have 3 intake manifolds to choose from (Edelbrock performer 3776, Edelbrock LD340 or Weiand action plus). What combo and or changes would any of you guys that have been at this a long time make to achieve close to the 400 HP range? Your expertise would be greatly appreciated. I hope I covered all that is needed.
