    Hey larry, thats what I have in my car now a E 303 cam. it's .498 lift and 220 deg. @ .050- static is 282 and it's ground on 110deg. lobe centers. also thats a EFI cam. the comp cam people say a carb cam is different than a fuel injection cam, for what thats worth. I like the carb setup but I think you need two more. four would be cooler..this is what I had years ago and nobody seem to know or care what it was, one guy ask if it was a turbo....thanks ..jh

    Thanks JH. I got the short block from a guy on ebay for $2000 who bought it from DSS Racing. It has a level 10 block with all forged internals. He bought it for his mustang 9 second drag car. He installed the E303 cam, roller lifters and fluidamper balancer. He offered to sell me some heads, intake and carb after I purchased the small block. If the E303 is incorrect, he didn't know it either and if it does 9 seconds it must not be too bad. I don't know yet what my car will do, but I know for sure it is faster than my 67 442 that I drag raced for a couple of years.

    They had a baby and the wife said to sell the engine. I contacted DSS about what else I should run on the car. They recommended the AFR 185 heads and they said to install a victor junior intake. I wanted something more for looks so they recommended the Air Gap Endurashine that I have now. They also told me that the Holley avenger carb would be best for mostly street driving and looks.

    As far as getting all eight. I wish that it fit in my budget better. I saw their four barrel setup that I am getting in Reno and I loved the look. It had the "Inglese" sticker on one of the carbs but I still wasn't sure what it was.

    For the difference in costs between $1900 and over $6000 I will just have to get by. That is unless you want to donate a few "K" to the LCSmith Benevolence Fund.

    This is something that has bugged me for a couple of years. Actually ever since I installed the carb I have now. It just doesn't "POP" my senses with the visual effect. The one I saw in Reno, made me say "wow, I like that". Maybe next year I will have the same problem, don't know. I might look for another air gap intake that isn't endurashined and paint it yellow in the future. Maybe not.

    Inglese says that this four barrel setup will out perform my holley, and it will get a lot better gas mileage, as if I care about mileage. It uses only one two barrel during normal driving and if you stomp the go button it kicks all four in. Even if it doesn't out perform what I have now, it will be okay. I can only get on this thing at on ramps anyway.

    Well, this is what I ordered today. Just couldn't force myself to pay more than double what this dual quad setup cost. Now I am looking for different valve covers and air cleaner. Larry

    Maybe just paint your old valve covers to match the exterior.

    That dual quad setup will look great.

    You saw the picture of the dual quad setup I went with. Here are the valve covers and air cleaner that I purchased. Hope they work and look like I want. Larry

    Now here is another question. I am attaching a picture of my brake cylinder and booster. Since I want to get a chrome one, do you think something like this will work? http://www.ebay.com/itm/7-Dual-Diaph...ht_3350wt_1127

    Larry - The only thing I get nervous about with these aftermarket parts in crucial areas is that if they fail, can you put normal parts-store parts on them to get you home.

    This seems to say it uses standard GM specs, so assuming the bore is the same as what you have now, then it should be a simple swap. Otherwise you may need to adjust things to match the new parts - but you have adjustable proportioning valve, so you're probably good to go.

    Thanks for the help Roger, don't know what we would do without your great feedback. I am dismantling the car today, taking off the carb, intake, and then the brake booster. I will measure all the mounting locations on the booster to make sure the new setup will fit.

    I will post some pictures of all the parts that are going up for sale, I will have the Edelbrock RPM Air Gap with Endurashine, the Holley Carb, valve covers, air cleaner, and booster / master cylinder.

    Thanks again. Larry

    Not running yet. Doing quite a bit of updates on the engine bay. Changed the intake and carbs, air cleaner being reworked to fit, valve covers and breathers, aluminum brake cylinder, braided radiator hoses, still waiting on the fuel regulator and pieces that I sent to Tucson to get chromed. It will be a few more weeks before I have it up and about. But, I am pleased with the upgrades so far. Larry

    Finished installing the fuel lines, fuel pressure regulator and fuel pressure gauge. They look okay I think.
    The air cleaner is just sitting on the carbs. It's a little too tall and still looking for an element that will work. I love the air cleaner and don't want to install a bubble hood, so hoping to find something that will work. Tried a dual four element from a 427 and it was way to long, but it was the right height.
    Next I have to tackle installing the new master cylinder and change the brake lines to fit it.
    It has been noted throughout this forum that you never get done with these things. I am living proof of that. Larry

    If that's not wow factor, Larry, I don't think wow is possible. Looks really good!

    And no, never done. How much clearance do you need to make it fit? I think a shaker hood would be really cool.

    I love the valve coverss. Maybe you can modify the air cleaner base. It all looks real nice.

    Can you get it buttoned up before you head South?
