We did pop off the valve covers, it has the 781's in it and we could not believe how clean it was. The engine has never been taken apart. It had no oil on the inside of the manifolds. The inside of the heads had no grunge or sludge build up at all. It had the quadrajet carburetor on it and the low rise intake on it. We're gonna be putting a cam, hydraulic but undecided which one, intake, probably edelbrock performer rpm, carburetor is gonna be the Proform 900cfm off my dads car, Headers, we got some on trade and I think there 1.75 but not sure.

Good break on the heads, but it still has dished pistons. That = low compression. Run a short duration camshaft with a decent amount of lift. It will increase the DCR and make more power than a large by huge cam with lots of overlap.
