Hey guys I don't come in here to often (mechanical section)
As I'm a green horn when it comes to engs !
I've re sealed engs and can determine if something bad ECT but getting things to work perfectly (no boom) no clue !
So
I have a 72 340 out of my charger this motor was rebuilt before and already has good stuff in it ! But it's sat for many years since rebuild only ran little here and there.
I got the eng pulled apart and decided to be safe I'll get it dipped and honed throw a set of rings and bearings at it . Decided to put a bigger cam in it the one that's in it says 280/280 on the end .
The Pistons rods all look brand new still
The heads are factory with bigger 2.02 valves already done and 1.5 roller rockers
I'm attaching the papers I got with car there's some eng information on it about what was done ect . I known the machine shop will get me the rings and bearings I need or at least give me numbers .
Not sure if I need to replace push rods and springs with cam upgrade or ???
I'm also attaching the cam I'm thinking would work .
It's a street car I want a bit of chop will have a 4 speed behind it and 3.55 gears out back
Rpm intake and 750 carb up top headers not picked out yet
Also if important this is a factory Forged crank motor.im told it's been balanced.
