New motor almost ready what do you guys think

would rather have a lil more compression and a lil larger cam but that should be a good running set up.

With a Yank or Vigilante 3600 stall and some drag radials I am sure it will feel pretty quick..

What would the best compression be. I didn't want to go to big on the cam as it will see a fair bit of street time..

Longevity is based on 90% builder, 10% parts. If the parts were prepared and assembled properly there's no reason the engine wouldn't last.

Thanku man...always learning.

Not really, it's all in the tune. I wouldn't worry about it being 11-1. When I say there is power left on the table by not going to say 12-1, we're talking 5-10hp, not like it's going to be down 50 or anything, lol. He'll get a lot of flack on the "other" board for not taking it right up the maximum though. My little 350 LT1 was running 9.4-1 and it seemed to have no problem stomping people. OP's car will be just fine at 11-1.

The street manners are 90% in the tune. A huge cam with a spot-on tune will drive much better than a mild cam like the comp 503 on a stock tune.
