a 509 lift or bigger would sound good

its going in a 1970 duster and so far we have decided to bore it 0.020 and shave the deck to 0.030 i want to put a stall converter on it re size the valves too put a 4 barrel carb on it. for now i am thinking a 2 1/4 inch exahst pipe on it with prolly a cherry bomb muffler all the rest of the stuff will be decided after i pull the engine today oh and idk whats in it for a transmission i find out when i pull it out today and i will post it but i was just wondering what the most popular cam people put in it is. i wont be drag racing it or anything i would like to keep it at around 15mpg and have a nice choppy snotty sound thats reisonably loud

rpm range and cam are directly related.....what is you intended rpm range?big cam with restrictive exhaust,and highway gears=slow.

Buy yourself an Erson 270 and be done with it.

Call engle cams and give them your info. They will grind the right cam for your combo.

Here's the specs on a cam that Doug over at SlantSix.org recommended to me for my /6...keeping the stock compression. It's a custom Erson cam.

And here's another cam that Doug recommended if I bumped my compression up to 9.0:1.

a 290 lobe... not to bad, im running a 340 lobe(.510 lift). and also slant rockers are not 1.5 ratio, there more like 1.3-1.4.
