Update on engine Build
I have been working on my 300 for almost 3 weeks now.. Porting almost done.. I ran into several problems with engine block when I pulled head off.. The number three cylinder has pits running almost entire length.. At first they felt rough but after I cranked engine to check the rest of cylinders they smoothed out. I bought set of 95 exhaust manifolds.. High volume oil pump.. Porting on my intake is done already.. I am running 2'' stainless pipe from exhaust manifolds to couple of cherry pipes I am hoping that this gives a good enough flow. I am going with a unified Distributor (considering Memphis Performance Distributor is 20 min away) I am going to keep my Holley 600 DP on the shelf and get either a HOlley 390 or a Demon jr 525. I am going to keep stock cam for now because As I stated before I plan on putting on a couple turbo's later on in life.. Anybody have any thing they think I should throw in while i Have engine apart? ( don't plan on putting bigger valves in $$$$$ )

I'd keep it pretty stock for now being as how you want to go turbo, but most turbo motors have INSANE cams in them. Usually a 304grind, just without the overlap in the lobe seperation. Might get a custom grind to come in with the torbos. you redy for those hairdryers yet?
