crap, I paid almost that much for just my crank!

if it's hydraulic there is no lash. Rotate the until both the intake and exh valves are closed. I'm assuming you have adjustable rockers. Then grab the push rod with your fingers and spin it as you tighten the rocker adjuster down. Once you can't spin the push rod then give it a quarter...

what type of lifters do you have? hydraulic or solid.

Cam should be somewhere around 246 at 50 and 550 lift. Do a little porting on either the X head or the eddy's. I had eddy's and out of the box they aren't that great. I basically stripped mine and started over so don't waste any money there. Go with a air gap dual plane manifold and a good...

Do everything they said and here is one more thing. Bend up the head gasket tabs and lay some silicone under them and the bend them back down. Then lay a 3/8 thick bead. Let it dry and trim. If it doesn't sqush out then you didn't use enough and start over.

Do you have adjustable rocker's? schiming the rocker shaft will change the geometry so be careful.

Actually I let Scott Brown design the cam. He and Ryan who did the heads worked together on the deal. The can is a split pattern with aprrox 620 lift. I wanted it to be well rounded for mostly street duty. Plus it should make 675 HP ish so if I lost 15 HP due to valve lift I can live with...

I have heard a lot of horror story's about clearances etc! build your own!

quote from Ryan Johnson Intake #'s are in........... This is cylinder #4, Seats hand blended, 3 Angle VJ, Chambers were hand blended, slightly enlarged to increase volume to lower Brett's compression. Intake valve has a 30* Hard back cut on it.... These are the final #'s.... I'm not...

what kind of rocker's are you using? I run a solid roller and I had a lot of noise obviously but didn't like the free play the rockers had side to side. I ordered some block spacer's to hold the rocker's still and cut the noise in half. I can't remember where I got them but I sold the heads...

I second the 340, get a steel crank 340. There are disc brake conversion kits available! or try ebay, lots of people selling kits. I don't think you have to change the front end other than motor mounts. You can run the 6 cyl torsion bars if you want but if your gonna do a lot of street...

T ake that adapter off and just run a filter. They alway's leak. I use a K&N small filter that will fit nicely with header's. I don't have the number right now but I can get it for you tonight.

I believe there are some cast roller rocker's that are less expensive. Other than that I haven't seen any for much less than the cranes. I ran the cranes for 4 years and liked them.

Glad you two found some common ground. Earl you sound like you know what your talking about and I can tell you that Larry (Lar414) know's his stuff too. I have known him quite a while. As for me whatever you guy's said?? ain't got a clue :lol: I do a little wrenching and am real good at...

let me know more about this E85 stuff when you get it figured out

Hey Larry! how are things going for you? I'm in a mess again with the car. Typical :lol: I decided to create a monster to putt around the streets with. I ordered a cam From Scott Brown today. Between him and Ryan J I should have things straighten'd out.

I talked to the engine builder and basically I have to much cylinder pressure and that's why the 4 speed is causing me fits. I don't mind running some race fuel with 92 octane but if I gotta run straight race fuel I want the horsepower to go with it. We are going to go with the Indy heads and...

The cam is advanced 4 degree's and the cranking compression is in line. No, I don't do any low rpm cruising. There is alway's one of my feet on the floor board! :lol: This motor may have 500 miles on it or so. My plugs look good so I doubt it is carbon. If I get to the point of running...

I have a 416 stroker which is supposed to have 11.6 comp. I can not keep the thing from pinging. It never did it with the auto and 4000 stall. Now that I have the 4 speed it wants to ping right when I lay into it. I recurved the MSD dist way back and even have a retard knob in the car so I can...

I will get to work on the carb this week. It's probably real close to what you need now. Steve ran a big block in the 11.7's with it. Let me get the carb from Steve and put some thought into it.

do yourself a favor and get that mopar ignition crap off your car. I had nothing but trouble with that junk. Get an MSD or Crane box.

Your header's are 1 5/8 which I went 11.29 with and had a full exhaust on the car. I did step up to TTI's. You don't need them to run 12 sec quarter's. I agree with Billy on the ign, get that junk Mopar conversion stuff off. I had ton's of problem's with that stuff. The MSD isn't that...

That all looks OK, Jetting is something you'll have to play with. Start low and jet up till your mph drops off. Then advance timing till you loose ET. How much compression do you have? Also try uncorking the exhaust.

something ain't right? how do you have the carb set up? jets-power valve-squirter size? also check to make sure you have full throttle. The 60 ft is good enough to run in the 12's easy so something else isn't working. Do you run with full exhaust and if so what is it? What are you...

Hello, I would reccommend a 4000 stall and go with 4.30's if you have a 28" slick and your motor will turn 6600 to 6800 rpm's depending on convertor slippage. To run 11's you will need somewhere around 112 to 114 mph and a decent 60 ft. You will run out of gear if you are running 26" tires and...

you'll have to have the perfect tune to run 11's with that combo. I'm not saying it can be done but I had a full roller 340 with all the toy's and 3 year's of tuning and didn't run 11's till the 3rd year. The car wanted to run 11.9's but if I did everything right it went 11.80's. As far...

I like it all but the Crate motor and the Demon. Build your own and go BIGS Find a 340 block, steel crank!! then wind the sh&t out of it! :lol: :lol:

How much do you want to spend? Indy has some nice heads or Edelbrocks will work too with some better springs and porting. I would guess 4500 to 5000 stall would work nice with some 4.30's or 4.57's. If the motor won't spin 7200 rpms ++ run the 4.30's or you'll run out of gear with...
