Thanks for the helpful replies. Very interesting.
Sounds like this cam would be a bit too hot for the 235 in a daily driver.
I got it for a 261 block, I am still looking for.
I was just curious, what the difference would be to the stock 261 cam or MF4 in that block with a 848 head, fentons and dual intake and 3.55 rear.
What I am looking for is to be able to accelerate faster from a dead stop and maybe climbing my local hills with more power and ease.
I am not sure if freeway performance requires an all together different setup...?
I'm not looking to impress others on the road.
Just like to get the most out of a 50s style rodded 261 for my driving habits.
Thanks again for the input, I learned so much from you guys already since I joined.
My beloved truck certainly is happy about all the improvements lately.
I bet it didn't think it would be in such good shape again, after all those years.
We sure appreciate that there are still knowledgeable, caring folks out there.
