Run it, it's a good manifold , I ran one for a while before I switched to at Holley Strip Dominator . I got it from Ed Hamburger, I was running an Edelbrock Torqer ,He said " take that Torqer off and go out in the back yard and throw it as far as you can " ! I didn't throw it away ,but I did...

Nothing wrong with those rockers, they are durable enough but the only thing I would add is their ratio is in the 1.45 range and it will cost you some lift. I run the Crane forged 1.6 iron rockers , a true 1.6 ratio and just as durable and affordable if you can find them now . Just FYI .

I use stainless steel shim .021 thick, picked up from metal shop cheap. Cut to fit allowing about .200 overlap and using contact cement like super glue to hold the plates in place , works great, I have to pry them off with a screw driver when I have to remove the plates . It works for me .

Caliper paint is good for 500 degrees and comes in about every color you would want , and available at most auto stores .

You can do it . My build : .030 over 340 , Speed Pro forged 9.0 to 1 for pump gas , stock forged crank, stock rods , 915 J heads, 2.020/1.600 , ported to 260 CFM , Mopar Performance 284 / .528 Mechanical camshaft , 1.6 HS rockers , Holley Strip Dominator, Holly Carb 4779 750 mechanical...

Bore X Bore X Stroke X 6.2832 , This for 8 cylinders . Works for me .

Metal shops will have the thin stainless you need and cheap. I don't know the gauge size but mine are .017 thick. I cut it to fit and used contact cement to hold in place until manifold was bolted on. No issues , 30 years and have pulled the heads a few times over the years , and the stainless...

Racing Engine Valves, REV, out of Fla.

It is not flawed , .... you just don't like it . "To each his own"....I think I said that already .

Explain the flaw.

That was explained in post 30 .

You didn't find out how big it was ?

That is five equations, this method has four . To each is own . Bore X Bore X Stroke X 6.2832 Bore X bore X Stroke X .7854 X cylinders

Bore X Bore X Stroke X 6.2832 (Pi X 2 ) This is for 8 cylinders . 6 cylinders is 4.7124. 4 cylinders is 3.1416 . You have 386.75 CID .

Looking for an inline fuel filter between the tank and electric fuel pump on '72 Duster 340 street/strip mid elevens , mostly street . What filter would be good for my set up that isnt restrictive with 3/8 fuel line . Thanks Terry
