I'm only playing around with 95CC heads (approx 9.38:1 compression) and a .030 455 shortblock, stock stroke and flat tops. I have run stock 7K3s with a .030 455 with several different cams (Ram air IV, Comp 292 and Summit 2802) all yielding mid to high 12 second timeslips with virtually no major tuning. Now with the ported heads and a better cam choice and carb, I'm looking for high 11s or better in a '67 Bird. Should be possible but I also want driveabilty without worrying too much about idle quality, vacuum etc. I appreciate all the info so far.
