Is that the engine your're building in your signature below?
If it is then there are a few things I can tell you right now.

1) You will definatly need your pistons notched for that 292H cam.
2) You might want to consider 4:10 or lower gears. That cam will need some help in the low-end department.

3) You will also want to consider a larger carb. too like a 750.

Don't put that 750 on before you get gears though.

I ran that same 292H cam in a 306 I had several years ago and didn't have the gears or compression to go with it and it was a dog until I hit 3500rpms and then it took off.
That cam has tons of upper-mid to high rpm torque & HP

I'm just trying to help you out so you're not very disappointed on your first pass down the strip.
