Default Re: 276 stroker from 35 years of parts

Tim, there are very knowledgeble flathead builders in both camps here. Aftermarket or stock distributor with stock carb/cam and large displacement. Since I'm cheap and it's a really easy thing to switch out at any time, then add to that I have a really nice stock carb and distributer sitting on my bench for zero outlay, I will start out with the 'Maybe-O-Matic' setup initially and see how she does. Of course my only comparison bench mark will be the 'before' woodie with it's 221 and three speed. Somebody tell me to get off the damn computer and get those doors glued up, the weekend is looming.
