Re: Paul vs Rich -the outcome

Paul,
Regarding your 440 and performance, if you didn't change to higher 
compression pistons, I would think a 268/270 cam would be in order to build 
compression and drop down to a 750 carb.  Additionally, I would change to a 
3.91 rear gear with your torque capability.
Earl is the expert though.
