TrickFlow Issues

That is just the way it is going to be with a new combo. I had one of the first set of TF heads so I had to figure out that they needed different head bolts, different rocker arm studs, didn't work out of the box with Cometic gaskets, etc. Now I'm trying to figure out what the best intake gasket is for them since they seem to be ported to something other than the common FelPro gasket. I also discovered that the TF heads don't like Moroso valve cover gaskets when using MP valve covers.

It is just a learning process so you have to roll with it.

take your time on the valve train set up. the mess I`ve got was the worst I`ve ever got into. took 3 times to get pushrod clearance, on a supposedly cnc`d head. don`t ever buy from rob mac out of Nebraska, he won`t stand behind his parts. the rockers that came w/ my heads weren`t even machined at all for spring clearance. altho the cnc`d ports flow very well. getting the valves lined up and shimmed right was a ***** too, but needs to be done right .
