I am in the process of rebuilding my 340. It was a bone stock 73 340. I am upgrading pistons with stock bore to some early replacement pistons to get 10.5:1 or whatever was stock early on. Also looking to upgrade cam with duration of 270-280. I am debating on the intake still of keeping the stock or something different. Also doing headers. A friend of mine keeps telling me to upgrade the intake valves from the stock 1.88 to 2.02. Any experience with this?? I was planning on doing some light porting to match the gaskets. Maybe a little bowl work also. Not much..
I want to take the heads in this weekend to get hardened valve seats and a full valve job. Just wondering if it is worth it to upgrade the intake valves. Looking for a healthy street engine. maybe 350 hp or so..
Thanks for the input...
