Make sure you get a quafie too!
If you are doing an entire 3.0 Longblock with the SVT cams then I would recommend having Terry Haines do it for you, he does know his stuff. Warmonger was the first guy with the entire 3.0 engine, and his numbers were not a let down. Plus you have a normal compression ratio.
