Port my Eddy's or Stroke to 408?

[flyfish]

360, Eddy heads, Air-gap, 750 dp
MP hydraulic cam, 292/.509
727, 3000 stall (TCI converter)
4:10 gear, 3250 lbs with driver.

Ran 12.4 in Indiana on the motor…same combo in Colorado went 13.8 on the motor and 11.12 in on a 180 shot.



I have combo that is close to yours and I am only expecting 13.80's to 13.0's
on motor 11.60's with a 125 shot.

The only differences are my cam. I have the 4.80 4.80 -280 Lunati cam with a set of ported J heads. what does your 60's look like. are the Eddy heads that much better ? I know I need to step up the cam I went a little too conservitive with my cam choice.

I would like to go to the Eddy heads and a hydrolic roller. but I have been hearing horror stories about the retro lifters.

My 60' times in Indy were in the 1.90's. The converter that I had was not matched to the rest of the combo....this will be fixed this year with the 8 inch PTC converter that I got just before the old cam wiped a lobe.

On a side note...I changed my mind yet again and bought a 4 inch crank on Friday...oh well, looks like I'm going stroker!

I do 915 j heads 71-72 castings for 1200 a pair and they flow 287cfm at .600
i do this for a living. add 250 for a used set of 915j cores (always on ebay) my 1200 = 1450 for a race heads. eddys are 1200 pair 1200 for the same port i do = 2400. eddys are better for street use hands down but for bang for buck. 915j 's all the way. almost a grand less and higher flow numbers most eddys flow at best 277 at .600. wanna get rid of 50lbs buy a fiberglass hood usbody source 500 bucks youll still have 450 left.

I'll put my SLIGHTY ported Edelbrocks up against your FULLY ported 915's any day of the week,performance wise in the "real" world the 1/4 mile,and i certainly don't have $2400.00 into them...
