I have a nice running 1976 440 from a motor home to use as a base for my build. It is still together, and I have been acquiring parts for it’s ultimate rebuild.
What I have so far:
A N.O.S. Sig Erson grind of the magnum cam
MOPAR electronic ignition
440 Source aluminum heads
Holley Sniper E.F.I
I will get headers and duals. I would like to run a Edelbrock Performer not RPM, or a Holley Street Dominator. Perhaps a vintage CH4B? I have a Ramcharger air set up.
The car is a ‘70 Coronet, 727 automatic, 3.23 rear.
I’m not looking at the king of the hill, fastest car in town, just a good driver. My question(s) are this: is there a more appropriate cam, and if so, how so? And what about pistons? I was thinking forged flat tops. My understanding is that I can run somewhat higher compression with aluminum heads
