Hey guys,

I am building a 408 for my 67 LeMans with a TH2004r and 3.55 gears. Intent is just a street cruiser and hit the highway when I want to. The engine is a .040 68 400 block, 670 heads, I just picked up the heads and will be having them gone through with new everything and get good forged pistons to get a compression to 9.5:1 max. May even go 9.25. I want to use a stock lockup stall converter

I am looking for some ideas for cam choice. I have a Lunati 702
Duration @ .050 (Int/Exh): 219/227
Gross Valve Lift (Int/Exh): .468/.489
LSA/ICL: 112/108

I was also thinking of going roller and would like recommendations. What about Howard’s 4/7 swap cams? And what’s the LS7 lifter use I’ve read a little about?
Thanks as always for your input.
Thanks
