I have a orig. 401 short block ready to rebuild. I want a mild RV type build for my Willys/Wagoneer 4x4 project( http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2451568 ) which has a tired short block AMC 360. My replacement 401 block is stripped, cleaned and been OK'd with inspection. Jones engine in Spokane will do machine and short block assembly. I'm going to do the rest.
Here is my question? Machine shop says only pistons available for 9/1 comp. are 30 over. I'd like to go 10 or 20 if possible but need a source for these pistons. I'm planning on using stock 401 heads.
Also, what is the best low rpm cam. I have Edelbrock cam, roller timing, intake manifold and carb. on my current 360 that I was going to reuse. They have about 1200 miles on them. But I've been reading the Edelbrock cam is weaker than stock.
