    Right now I have the tall chrome Moroso valve covers. I changed to the Trick Flow heads with Harland Sharp rockers. I am now having some interference problems. I have bent the baffles and the rocker studs still touch. My question is what is everyone using for tall valve covers? There seems to be...

    Compression ratio question

    I am considering a head change on my 408. It now has a 10 to 1 compression ratio with aluminum heads. My question is if I change to the new compression ratio which would be 10.3 to 1. What effect does this make on drivability? I know the change is small and there maybe not any real effect. The...
