I do have ARP head studs...
I believe i have a HV oil pump... when i crank the engine over with no spark plugs or fuel in it, and valve covers off. oil starts dripping off the top of the valve springs and i had to grab some rags before it makes a mess...
The guy i bought the new shafts from, said that these ones come with bigger oil holes in it so banana grooves wouldn't be needed. I also got the push rods from him and one of the tips is already coming off...
oil is a 20w50 kendal racing oil. i have a conservative rev limiter at 6000 rpm
there is a couple of the rocker arms that i clearanced for the valve springs that are slighty rubbing still, very little
a few pages back i measured the valve spring pressures and based on the comments, i think i did that wrong, i will have to learn how to do that and next time i have the springs off i can re check that
The car runs great and its really responsive and quick.... i am on the path to make this thing bullet proof and have a piece of mind that im not going to break it
