Default cam selection

If your engine has flat top pistons in it, I would look for a set of 16 or 62 heads to get about 10:1 compression. If you switch to 3:73's I would look at the summit 2802 cam (224/234 .465/.488) or something like the crower 60916 cam (221/229 .455/.470). You may also want to look at getting a higher stall, something like a 2500rpm. Either one of those cams should have a choppy idle. If you want a nasty idle I would look at the comp XE274 or the Ram Air 4. As for rhodes lifters, I am not a fan of them because they are noisy. But, if the noise dosent bother you, I am sure they would work well with a bigger cam.
