Greg,
3500rpm on the highway no thanks😳. I will need to revisit the cam.
Great input, I really appreciate it.

You'll be happy with a warmed over Clevo. Don't overthink it, just carb, cam, inlet manifold, ignition and extractors.
Don't rev her over 5 grand, last for years and enough torque to pull a house. If you want to go racing.......well, that's a WHOLE different Cleveland.

🤔 I'm leaning toward the roller... Options soooooo many options.
Maybe I'm overthinking it...A standard 351C will feel like a rocket after driving 3.0 TD Nissan Patrol (daily driver) 😂.

David Vizard has been a prominent author of performance books since the 70s and is a successful race engine builder and performance guru. He's been around since before aftermarket parts were a thing so knows how to squeeze every last bit of performance out of factory parts while at minimal cost.

Thanks Greg,
Appreciate your input.
Regarding Compression I have read your previous posts on this but lack the confidence too say my working-out is correct.
I have contacted crow cams with some figures and they recommended Crow Cam - 21649 Hydraulic (see attachment)
What is the "magic" compression number...and how does one achieve it..
I have read a common mod for the 2V CC head is to fit 4V exhaust valves obviously this is to increase flow. Is it a value added mod?
At this stage my block is at the machine shop and has been bored to 4.030 (block from an XD Ghia).
I will also fit MSD (or similar) ignition and I have a Edelbrock 2V performer manifold on the way (a lot of parts are in low supply atm).
