yeah, that´s true. They drilled the threads for the water neck too deep, directly into the water passage....not a huge problem, but not what i would expect also. Oh, i´ll work around as usual ;-)

oh, possibly have to shorten my velocity stack :D

looks like the lobe is not parallel to the roller axis....cam not grinded correctly? or due to lifter bore wear the offset creates a uneven force on the cam surface? Michael

The stock mopar hydraulic roller lifters are significantly taller, chrysler did not change the Block casting without a cause! I would not suggest using the stock HR Lifters in a LA Block designed for hydraulic flat tappet lifters. I´m curious if the recess in the lifter bore is there in the LA...

Thanks! No, i won´t change the cam for now....maybe later if there´s a upgrade of the short block. Still running a custom HR cam, but with SR lifters then. Cam is kinda small when compared to others (250 / 250 @ .050"), with the new T&D Rocker setup (1.7 intake / 1.65 exhaust) the intake lift is...

finally i my new parts arrived....i´m excited to put this stuff on and go testing :D We´ll see how that goes, hope to get some track time middle of June.

Oregon #1341 is a nice grind for a 5.2. Powerful and smooth driving, been there done that. Michael

Brett will do his magic on these also?

Interesting stuff, keep us updated! Michael

congrats! we need pics from that 68 Valiant! Michael

i read a book from DV, got convinced regarding the LSA theory. Had comp grind me a camshaft with 108°LSA instead of the common 110° - bingo, new best ET by quite a bit. All of the tests with somewhat "limited" cylinder heads show gains when reducing the LSA up to a certain point. One day i´ll...

Hello Guys and Gals, i´m planning a trip to florida this fall, end of November. Start and End point is Miami, have around 10 days to spend. Are there any suggestions regarding race tracks, museums, car shows etc. a car nut must see there? Otherwise, if there are suggestions regarding nice...

Isnt the Indy different bolt pattern than stock LA? I think so.....so this would not be a bolt on deal anyways for the OP. Michael

to make things easy: there´s no need to use the 90° Adapter. Even with headers it will work with a small Filter like WIX 51085.

don´t think so. It was an option from mopar (P4876310 for example) a while back with offset Intake rockers....not very popular. Michael

love that car....you wanna go faster with another engine? Michael

thanks for the information, interesting stuff for sure. 3D-Printing is cool technology for prototyping! Michael

Dodge Colt RS.....looks exactly like a rebadged Mitsubishi Colt i had years ago. This car had 2 shift levers, one for the 4spd, the other one for low and high range....and even if it was totally simple and cheaply made, we could go dirt racing and jumping the car one afternoon and driving to...

cool stuff, thanks for sharing!

question: what makes a head "moved centerline"?

in this case a wider LSA is possibly the better solution. Less "peaky" torque production. I also would prefer the TrickFlow single plane intake over the air gap.....especially with the rpm band you expect. Regarding the pistons: i run hypereutectic KB356 with good results, but strictly no...

hmmm....those red ones are nice, too!

Thanks for sharing! Great that John will give us his opinion to this new product. I like the design!

ok, who´s got more.....;-))) .620" Lift, no trouble at all. As said before 6900 -7000 rpm trough the traps. Michael

i use stock replacements for quite a while.....10.5x car, 7000rpm runs - without a hiccup! So i´d suggest a set of melling stock replacement lifters JB-2225. Michael

like a ducati? Desmodromic Valve train :D

what a dumb mistake, the one who built it must be pretty ignorant....is the rod also in wrong? Michael

Hey, nice duster! Tom told me about you....we should meet there next year!

just write M+S in big white letters on the tires, should work ;-)

ääh....no. That would be too obvious ;-)
