Just threw a rod throught the block on my way back from Vegas.
Need to do a rebuild on the quicks.Need cam advise,here is what I have:

1967 Dart 225 904(with low first and lockup)
Daily driver
Going to do a complete rebuild .030 over
Big Valve Head with mild port work about 9.0-1 comp
Super six iron intake with holley 350 carb
Long tube headers with 2 1/2 exhaust.
8 3/4 rear with 3.23's

Want max performance with above combo,and stock stall/LU convertor.

With a stock torque converter I'd use the Erson RV-15 that Doc designed. See this thread for more info. http://slantsix.org/forum/viewtopic.php ... son#227653

You could stand quite a bit more duration and make more power if you were willing to buy a high stall converter. Everything else in your combo supports more cam duration.

Remember, if you're thinking of going turbo, you might want a larger LSA and a little different on the duration.

Turbo is a furture goal,but I might just buy a different cam for the later down the road.

I like a lumpy idle,as long as its not horrible at a stop light in D.

I would like it to rev to 5500-6000

3.23's with 26" tall tires should put me anywhere from 2500+ rpm I would imagine.

I am more than willing to buy a high stall convertor.Its price that is holding me back. I only have enough for the machine work and rebuild kit.Will be doing all other work myself...

Some nice Erson SL6 "street cam" options:
Erson 244 MP "clone" cam in a RDP design is called RV10M-212/.295
The next step up, also an RDP cam has been named RV15M-212/.295
Here is the cam sheet on the last one I ordered and used.
I would NOT grind 4 degrees of advance into the RDP RV15M-212/.295 as shown on the sheet.
( I had to retard the cam 4 degrees when I installed it to get the events in a good place)

I have a different idea on the cam. I really like the Erson 280/270 and you do have the engine work to support it.
Either way a New TC would help alot. Even if you used a stock cam.

I plan on buying a convertor,but it wont be for a few months down the road. Would it be ok to run something like the 280/270 with no convertor,untill I can buy one? Or will it really be a dog?

I ran the 280/270 for 3 months without a high stall, it ran fine just worse on gas milage. I was not trying to race so it wasnt a big deal.

I guess i wont really be a big help since i was running a 3000rpm converter with my 270 erson cam but i liked it, it wouold launch hard and pull over 5000rpm depending on the timing

It *might* be OK with 9:1 comp minimum and a good ign timing tuneup. Also, degree it at 100 centerline (yes, you read that right).
