Aluminum. I just need the bolts.

Fixed

I will be at the Indy swap meet next weekend and can pick up.

Is it acceptable to run shims with locators?

I have a set of aluminum heads that I am building, and when measuring for Installed Height, I get 1.920; the spring recommended for my cam has an installed height of 1.8", So I am off by .120", but I will use a .060 spring locator, which leaves me .060 left. Can I run a shim with a locator? Is...

I don't do much with cast iron heads anymore, but I am freshening up a set of heads on a Jeep and would like to put positive seals on it. I hate to buy one for just one set of heads. I have the correct arbor need the cuter. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

That makes sense, thanks for the info.

The guy that tunes mine is really good. There are a lot of good tuners in the holley world.

They have a 2.08 intake. When I did the equation, it said I should use a 106. From the input, sounds like that is still too tight for my application so I will probably do with something a little wider

That sounds like a great combo. Im glad you like it. Self Tune or did someone tune it for you.

I think many don't want to go two sizes smaller unless they have to. I think many, including me, are looking for the best balance of power and driveability. If my engine is down 5-10hp, but it is better on the street, I'll take it.

I have done 5 now and they all are great. One of them is a tunnel ram 440 with duel Holley sniper and it’s a dream to cruise around.

Yes, he has helped me in the past and I do plan on contacting him.

Maybe I am just stupid. I do have some concerns over the valvetrain geometry since it's already a struggle with a flat tappet, but I am confident that I can get it pretty good. I plan on pulling the intake and checking rollers periodically and staying on top of them. Lord knows I have broken...
