ken it is more a matter of where you were idea for your combo and what it had . most big duration cams and intakes and ports want alittle rich over stock at sea level . if your pulling the same volume of air at a lower rpm with the bbc and both had big cams start where ya left off . a 468 will have a stonger pull per rpm for throttle response and you may want to decrease the pump cam and nozzles to keep it crisp .
i would start with 84 /90 and 33 nozzles pink cam in late hole
