Missed on this combo?

Bare. Non off set rockers. Brand new 1.6 hand checked by Hughes.....no way am i going through the expense and trouble of new, off -set rockers.

Just going to swap my valves, springs and retainers and should be good to go. I will have to have my machinist mill them. They are 70cc chambers and I'm set up for 68. Don't think he'll have to take off too much.

Got ahold of Tim at Bullet just before they were going to regrind the cam. Stopped him just in time. He did put it on their CamPro machine just to make sure it was accurate. No charge. Sent me the print out with the cam.

I got lucky a week ago and a real smallblock MOPAR head specialist guy offered to take a look at the Eddys before I started to epoxy them. His advice was, where I want to be just wasn't gonna happen with those heads. No epoxy or regrind was going to get me what I want. He actually said as they are, they'll be a nice head for someone building a 4-500 HP motor......dual plane intake .......the more usual type of build. I
Mean really, they DID make 560 HP.

No sense possibly ruining them with epoxy. So I bit down hard and called Rod Bloomer. And of course I will dyno the thing. Hopefully in 2 weeks or so. Maybe less..

Monetary LOSS is really not much, since im using all the valve gear, but added cost of the Bloomers really drives this engine up there.

I might just buy some new 2.08 intake valves, install the original Edelbrock springs and sell them to someone building the right motor for them. Main goal right now is to get this thing back together, back on the dyno, and hopefully.....between the framerails.

Talk about cutting it close!
