Yep. I’m not surprised you’d find a guy who builds stuff like you use.
Surely if you want to make power at 8k plus you aren’t using Harlan Sharp rockers and 5/64 rings. That’s a given.
Unless you are a Chrysler guy.
The rest of the racing world is using Jesel or T&D or Manton type rockers.
They use 1/2 inch or bigger pushrods.
They use .7 mm rings.
And guess what? The TBO is far FAR better than it’s ever been.
Ti valves are money savers. That’s the fact. If your valve is over 5.150 long with a 2.100 head diameter it should be Ti. It saves money over the long run.
This is the stepping over a donut to grab dog **** analogy.
The rest of the racing world has moved on and as I have been pointing out and Chad Spierer and most of the guys who commented on his post that’s just the fact.
Chrysler guys are sucking hind tit.
I get it you think RPM is bad. Then dont do it. Run that street/tractor ****.
Just stay out of threads that require a working knowledge of induction systems until you have at least several hundred hours behind a grinder and the requisite flow bench and dyno time to test your work.
You just don’t have a clue. And you show it with every post.
My W5 motor 20 years ago had 043 ring pack, Jesel rockers, and 3/8 intake and 7/16 exhaust pushrods, Ti retainers, etc. it ran 74-7500 every pass. It was all 1/4 back then too.
I don’t think rpm is bad, I think rpm bracket racing like I do, isn’t needed, it’s overkill. It’s also less costly. It’s the prevelant way it’s being done. Guy that won the million( Donnie Hagar, a friend of mine) runs 6.30’s in a 2600 pound Vega with a super low budget 383 in it, he is also a World champion.
I am gonna guess you run your mouth way more than you make laps at the track.
I say that because unlike you must be, I have a budget and am trying to retire. It’s easy to spend other’s money, call them names and assume they don’t know all these little “ tricks” you seem to think you exclusively are aware of. What a dunce.
Would love to go to a roller cam, etc, etc, etc. but more cage, a license, yada, yada. None of it will turn on more win lights, just more money, and I have already done all that stuff. I have tons of fun doing what I do.
You can wack your weenie reading magazine articles if you want, I like racing :lol:
