Some of you might recall my tuning issues with 68 KAT's 390. The previous owner did a 1/2 arsed job of deciding what to build and I am still trying to clean up the results.
I know the engine has forged 10:1 pistons, an Edelbrock Performer RPM manifold and a Demon (for now) 750 carb. The heads were port matched and the combustion area cleaned up.
What I am trying to determine (without removing it) is what the cam specs are. The PO and the speed shop that did the work cannot remember anything about it other than it was an 'RV' cam.
Does anyone have any experience with an 'RV' cam on an FE? Is there any way to check it out? I am trying to decide which way to go with it...smaller more easily tuned carb - or aluminum heads, bigger cam and MORE hosepower...
Thanks
Ken
