I can't hear you very well ... it must be too loud in here.
Use whatever rings are listed for your application in the Sealed Power, Speed-Pro catalog. You never said what dimension rings you need so, I presume it would be high performance for OEM replacement.

A 950 hp would work well with the parts you've mentioned.

But a victor manifold and dominator will go faster also get rid of the hydraulic cam, have an appropriate mechanical one ground for it, you have a race car not a grocery getter.

I wish I had found this site sooner. The reason Im using a hdy cam is the heads have a Crane adj rocker kit that you use the stock pedestal mount. They said to use a hdy cam with no more than 530 lift. I live in a rural area in Southern Il an the local machine shop closed . So I'm trying to use what I have for now. Now the question is to 950 or 1050 confused

Pull the heads and take a ride over to Owensboro KY the guys over there will hook you up.

Ditch the Performer RPM and get a victor and a 1050 dominator.

I"m leaning toward 1050 carb but for now will stick with the heads an cam I have. Lone time ago when I ran a two barrel cleveland in stock class then when bracket racing started , I cut down a set 4bbl heads with a hand drill an a Crane rocker pedestal bit. Some how it ran Very Happy may try it later with these heads.
