Hey Everyone,

I'm a newbie to the forum but I have some questions I'm hoping someone can help me with. Hence, me joining the forum.

I am rebuilding a 1968 318. I already have a set of freshly worked 360 heads to bolt on. I plan on doing some streetable power upgrades. I would really like to know if anyone can tell me the stock CR and Cam lift and duration for the 68 2 bbl, so I can decide myself on the pistons and cam I would like to put in it. Other plans include an Edelbrock 600cfm, edelbrock timing chain and gears, probably a .420 lift edelbrock performer plus cam and lifter kit, and edelbrock performer intake. Block is getting an .030 overbore at this time and pistons are in my thoughts at the moment. Is what I am doing enough to get me to where I want?? Can anyone tell me?? Any and all suggestions are welcome and appreciated. Hopefully I will have a quick Dart Sport when I am done. By the way, I plan on sticking with the 904 I have now except for a few upgrades to it as well with possibly a 2500 stall.
