Hello,
This is my first time building a 455 for a jet boat. and I have been reading up on what size cam to install I know it's a touchy subject with all the mods and such that can be done. The engine has .30 over forger pistons, totally oil restricted, offenhauser single plane, 10 qt pan.
And was wondering if I should have the stock head freshened up or try to find a set of aluminum heads to top it off?
The only reason I am asking all these newbie questions is most everything I have read is basically trial by fire and I could use someone that has actual 455 jet experience or has been in my shoes. I hate to put in one cam to find out that is one to stay away form.
Any guidance will be greatly appreciated. Thanks
