I would select a newer 302 block for your buildup. You are looking for the hydralic roller cam set up. I would go a stroker kit, either 330 or 347 cubic inches. With the street 347 strokers, the rods are shortened over the race 347 units so the oil control is very good.

I would contact Vortec and have them recommend the cam grind to use should you decide to supercharge in the future. Use a
Vortec because it is a centrifugal supercharger that delivers extra boost as your RPM climbs. You actually get better gas mileage driving around town, but when you mash the pedal you NEED NASA training.

Go a high lift, low duration cam. But make sure you tell the stroker kit company and Vortec what you want to accomplish so they get the compression ratio and the cam right for the car.

Good Luck!

I am running a 30 over 351 Windsor with Trick Flow Heads and I get about 400 HP. This car is really fun. A Vortec would put me at 575 HP. CRAZY.
