Reply to "Cam for 2V heads"

Hum. No negative intended by me, but to me this is way too mild of a set up. What is the purpose of building a mild Cleveland? The specs you are stating are not much more then a 2v station wagon engine?

The point of the Cleveland is for performance. In order to do that you need quite a bit of cam lift and engine rpms otherwise why bother? Unless of course you got all of this for free, then I'd understand.

The 2v heads are going to give you more crispness off of idle with a pretty straight line power curve BUT they are not going to allow the type of reving necessary to wake this engine up.

The Ford 2v intake ports do not have good line of sight into the valve pockets.

You need a cam in the .600 to .650" lift range and a duration of around 300 degrees and an overlap of 72-75 degrees. If that is too hot, then you are building the wrong engine.

Just my opinion. I am sure others here will seriously disagree but everyone has a different concept of what this engine is?
