@@guidosarducci3047 I actually have given it to my lil brother now and he has big plans he's already bought new wheels and wanting to rebuild the engine before we start to paint it he wants all the original strips
Looked up your cam...definitely need a fair amount of initial timing..some lock them out some dont. Raise the idle some, get an 02 sensor kit etc. Cams with a lot of overlap need time tuning but when sorted it will fire right up like any other car and jump when you nail it. Edit-oops youre in Tx.
Looks and sounds great!!! What is duration? I'm getting my 351M installed starting tomorrow in my 78 F250 4x2. 110° LSA 219 Duration and .494 lift. I have 2v open heads but custom zero deck flat tops and fully balanced. Home head port job with Weiland 4 barrel intake and 750cfm Edelbrock. 1800 stall on a big block C6. Should run good, I hope.
@@CCAutoWorks maybe need to go with solid flats or a solid roller When I helped a friend with a built 351w we did zero lash and 1/4 turn on a hydrolic cam. His goes to 6500 no problem. I've heard/read that you can have valve float because of the hydrolic lifter pushing the valve open at higher RPM. Lifter pump up. My 85 GT Mustang would only rev to 6000 because of that.
Mate that car needs 2v heads 10 to 1comp and air gap 750 holley and a dyno tune will be a different animal,i have been tinking with clevelands for 40 years,combination is key. I would make those changes before changing cam
You sir are definitely right we took the 2v heads off because everyone made the 4v out to be amazing but are 2v heads where open chamber and the 4v are closed to up the compression. You Aussie's have all the good Cleveland stuff and know how to make monster combination's
My dad just bought 4v headers are you sure 2v headers are better

@@Sonic_Appeal It’s a matter of application. The 2V heads have smaller ports which gives you much better port velocity and better throttle response from mild street motor. The 4V closed chambered heads are much more suited to high rpm horsepower which is precisely what they were designed for originally.
Well idk if it's the cam or the 4v heads but it had no low end power they recommend a 2500 stall but it wasn't enough so we put a 3600 stall and it runs good now we had changed so much at the same time idk what really happened we was running 2v heads before the cam install and Howard's had sent and recommend the wrong springs and lock and retainers several times
I have the 2v. I’m thinking about the Edelbrocke air gap intake, new carb, and a mild cam.. just a street car .. you happy with the 4v?..or you think I should make the change?
carbs too small for sure and those edelbrocks suck for much more then a stock application IMO. The cam is just wrong in every aspect for a 4v headed cleveland. he'd have been better off to run the stock cj cam. Of course it wouldn't have that lumpy "look at me" lope but it would have been much better for the street.
@@billwilliamson9842 650cfm will work pretty good with decent sized valves, just idk what size he's running. Definitely could have been matched better with the cam tho
Need a bigger carb. Clevelands like bigger then the book says. I ran 4 different carbs on a 2v Cleveland and a 700DP ran best of all. 4v engines cammed like that will probably do better with a 750. I don't think the Edelbrocks work that well on a cleveland. I had one of those and tried some stuff with it and the double pumper 700 was way better.
Thank you for the info we actually just ordered a 750 for it because we started seeing that edelbrock wasn't much of a performance carburetor it's more of a daily time carb
@@fordfreak9456 I didn't realize how much bottom end I'd lose with the 4v heads and how I'd never be able to get enough rpm out of it to gain it back on the top
I ran a similar cam in my Cleveland. Closed chambered 4V heads .542I.562E dont remember duration@.050 i think 236I 246E compression 10.6:1. Ran well. needed gear. ran 3.89 rear 3000 convertor. AED carb 780 cfm. idle it up a touch. I like the car!
It's a 2v short block with dish pistons with 4v closed chamber heads but where about to pull it out and put flat top pistons to raise the compression and advance the cam gear
May I ask what have you done to it besides the cam I have a 72’mach 1 as well and man id love to have mine sound like that lol it’s the engine chop for me
Real it's just a Howard's rattler cam the engine has been bored .30 long ago with dished pistons stock four barrel heads with a aluminum intake and long tube headers that's it
I wonder if Cleveland is so badazz in this small size then why one didn't tried to make it in larger size??hmmmmn.....🧐🧐🧐...say in 500 C.I would be great!! Game changer!!
Gday from oz . Love the sound of the Clevo. Bought the same cam for my 57 f100 I’m building . 351 +30 , flat top pistons , Howard’s lifters , yella terra roller rockers , air gap , 2v CC heads , sniper , ice ignition , headers into a 3” system . C6 , GV over drive and 9” trutrac with 3.5:1 gears. Motor was fully rebuilt some years ago and not run , so thought might as well change a few things before it gets started . 😊
That's not nice like for now or forever how u supposed to know the setup and what's going on if someone doesn't tell you guess just hear it and assume you know what's all done
