I used a engine leveler with the engine and trans pointed down, with hood removed, and the back end of the car jacked up high as I could get it. Once the trans and engine was going in pretty good I lowered down the rear of the car.
Went to NAPA for some new front brake rotors for my Ram because they was warped bad. Dodge had a problem with their Ram rotors warping (long story). The NAPA guy told me I had two choices the rotors made in the USA or the rotors made in China. He said if I bought the USA ones I would be in here...
These was Morel and Eaton roller lifters. If you consider the companies cheap then so be it. The Morels was $440 retrofit lifters. One of the morels would not pump up. The Eatons clattered like crazy upon start up no matter the adjustment.
Hughes "retro fit" lifter not pumping up!
I'm running the Eddy heads... Hughes Roller lifters.. roller rockers.. on a Hughes cam in my LA 360 and use Driven 10w30 oil. Have no issues. I will stick with the dino oil.
You have too much vacuum... the stock type PVCs can't handle it.. LOL
I have a 03 Ram with a big cam and my power brakes work fine. They sometimes feel funny in parking lots but I don't feel any differences other than that. 8 inches of vacuum most of the time at idle. You need a bigger cam...
15-16 inches of vacuum!! I have two engines one in my Ram and the other in the cuda. Neither one pulls over 10... lol
Could use process of elimination. Remove and plug off PVC. Drive it. Just to eliminate the possibility of the whistle coming from somewhere else.
Put tape around the PVC where...
The OP says that he is having problems with a whine/whistle stating he has tried different traditional PVCs with no luck. I suggested the M/E Wagner because it's made differently than a normal PVC. My thinking it would solve the whine/whistle because it's fully adjustable to work on any engine...
