What do y'all think?

So this is my first FE / ford truck.04-30-2014 06:10 PM by GaRedneck91
My rig is a 75 ford f100 had the 360 which is being took out and rebuilt and converted to the 390. I'm swapping the old intake for the edelbrock performer and the carb for a holley 750 vac secondary's.I decided to go with the edelbrock performer plus cam. Money allowing headers soon .. Got 3:50 gears and 33x12.50x15 m/t . It has the 4speed granny 1st.I use my truck for everything from huntin to hittin mud holes to just crusin to haulin scrap or whatever I need it for. The cam specs are:
Duration Advertised 272° Intake/282° Exhaust
Duration @ .050'' 194° Intake/204° Exhaust
Lift @ Valve .460'' Intake/.480'' Exhaust
Lift @ Cam .265'' Intake/.280'' Exhaust
Lobe Separation Angle 110°
Intake Centerline 105°
Intake Timing @ .050" Open 8° ATDC
Close 22° ABDC
Exhaust Timing @ .050" Open 37° BBDC
Close 13° BTDC


I was just wonder what y'all thought about this little setup and if y'all had anything to add before I start my rebuild. Also everything else not mentioned is stock just bored .030 over.

From experience check the casting numbers on your new 390 crank and rods...

Hello Mike,

Where can I find out more about DD5? Is that simulation software?

Thanks

Turbo dog is right , you can get it on Amazon $49.00 money well spent if you are building a motor and not sure on parts to buy .

there's a shh free download link out there , but I wouldn't do it , most likely a VIRUS
