EEarlie A replied to the thread Valvetrain Geometry.I was just thinking about some of this same stuff as far as resonant frequency goes. More stiffness should raise the resonant...

EEarlie A replied to the thread Valvetrain Geometry.I'm having some of the same thoughts, especially when that 5/16 bolt goes into an aluminum head. Edelbrock and Speedmaster use a...

EMost likely the lobes they would be using would be incredibly fast to begin with. No matter what you still need to control the valves...

EEarlie A replied to the thread Valvetrain Geometry.Here's some good information on Jesel's approach from their catalog. Scroll down to page 28. They are showing a setup with 0.850"...

EI tend to think so. I used the mid lift method on my BBC with stud mounts and it’s been flawless but I did exactly zero testing to see...
-
EControlling the valve, with regards to acceleration on and off the seat, as well as slowing it down through peak lift is why there’s...
-
EEarlie A replied to the thread Valvetrain Geometry.Are you saying you don’t think mid-lift is always the best solution? More acceleration early and less velocity at high lift would place...

EEarlie A replied to the thread Valvetrain Geometry.Good input. T&D also seems to advocate the mid-lift theory. 'As little wasted motion as possible' and 'narrowest sweep pattern' both...
-
EEarlie A replied to the thread Valvetrain Geometry.Mike makes very good arguments in those articles, but there are other opinions and approaches.
-
EPreferred geometry is dependent on the amount of design lift, I believe Jesel has it correct for higher lift apps, I believe the...

EEarlie A replied to the thread Valvetrain Geometry.This statement is sort of why I made the post. Many people on here say it. I've said it in some posts. But how do we know what good...

EHere's some more thoughts on small block rocker shaft/rocker arm geometry. I'll only be showing geometry on the long (valve side) of...

EEarlie A replied to the thread [SOLD] Edelbrock LA heads.Thanks. Pretty close, but not exactly.
