Re: Did I chose the wrong heads?

Re: Matching cam
I run that same comp cam in my corvette with a 355 small block 11.1 motor.I have dart iron eagle 200 cc heads that have been ported and run a team g single plane intake with a 150 shot.The cam works really well for street strip.Also the 3.90 gears should work well with this cam I run 3.73.
