I'm running a 36LB with the same heads and Eddie Meyer two carb high rise intake with 2 97's and Potvin Super 3/4 cam. Had Bubba rebuild the dizzy and initially ran the motor as he had the dizzy timed--it ran hot. I finally figured out you need more advance with a "bigger" cam, so I set the initial timing as far as it would go--it made world of difference--more power and it runs cool even when idling in hot weather. Just my experience with a very similar setup. Good Luck. Rod
