I have a 225 slant six in my 72 duster that I bought about a year ago. I've polished the head decked it 0.060" and done a competition valve grind. I upgraded from the single barrel to a super six setup. I've got a 7 1/4 rear end not sure of the ratio and an automatic tranny. The drive line is pretty much factory no mods. Any suggestions on a camshaft. I'm looking for a good street performance cam nothing really wild craig_o_connor88@hotmail.com |

I never liked the .022 & .022 lash settings on the Cranes, always seem to run these a bit tighter on the intakes. ( .016 to .018 ) DD |

Idle is still smooth. Lou |
