Crank/Cam
1. How much crank thrust is allowable on a stock crank shaft? 327/LE 275HP stock motor.
2. W/ Stock internals, 202/160 aluminum heads, new RPM intake, 4-spd trans, what is a good cam lift/duration without going to high but getting decent choppy sound?
3. Oil pump: stock or high volume???
4. Quiet gear drive... still pretty noisy? Bad idea/good idea? never ran one....
Just freshening this motor; keeping it pretty stock.
