Is this worth it? 1974 440

throw it in and run it. its the only way you will find out other than dissasembling and inspecting everything. you can do a cam swap, but that kind of opens up a can of worms. i wouldnt consider a cam swap with stock springs, you might as well lap the valves while you have it apart. one thing leads to another. i would put a summit cam and timing chain in with some shim head gaskets, new springs, and a cheap used torker or performer intake.
