It's a stock cam, not changing it

I was looking on the service manual of 1969 and looks like that the lsa is 113 and icl is 110 so it is already 3 degrees advanced? Should I install it more 4 degrees?

I'm building a budget 440 with 9-1 compression used performer intake and a stock cam non hp, engine is a 69 , just for street burn some rubber to have some fun, the cam gears have slots for advanced and retarded 4 degrees, how should I install it? straight advanced or retard it?

I measured it today, I don't have a checking pushrod but I assemble the heads and valvetrain and used a feeler gauge between the lifter and the cam until I got the required preload, I found that 7.63" is what I need. THX

The mp ones are measured the same way as the comp cams? comp cams are usually a little bigger from what they advertise. If I the preload is low and I mill the heads 0.03 they should be OK then?

Get an aluminum one or stock or steel, the chrome ones are made of pot metal with heat they tend to warp, you can try to sand it flat but with time they will warp again.

Hi, I'm searching for pushrods for magnum style heads on la block, cam is hydraulic flat tappet, I've read that boss 302 pushrods work but I found that they have differente lenghts from 69 to 71, so I wanted to know what pushrods lenghts people are using on this kinda of combo I was looking for...

Someone know anything about this heads if they are any good, flow well or worth anyhting...? they were on a 73 413 marine engine and have closed chamber 1.6 exhaust valves, and adjustable rocker arms, they seem to be early castings but no date on them and also have only 4 bolt valve covers

I checked another one and all of them have 2 holes on the air bleed brass tube, one each side

you need more compression 8.5 is too low, and 5000 stall is ridiculous in your combo

Yep they have different holes this is from a 2146 top that was on mine 6138s, I do notice that the air bleed copper holes on the primary circuit are different from some models

maybe it is a bad vibration damper

check your ignition timing, is your vaccum advance hose connected? were the jets rods and spring changed? low pressure on tires could cause a little bad mileage too but not too much

Thanks!!

Now it's ok when its warm, could be a little better.... I adjusted the rods height and put more pressure on the rear tires they were a little flat... I don't have a stock manifold probably i'll make a support for an edelbrock eletric choke

I'm running a 256/262 voodoo cam

Its a 318 .030 with a voodoo cam, 9-1 compression, eletronic ignition with chrome box, action plus intake, 6138s thermoquad(340 manual) with .098 jets(stock its .095) sparks are light brow, cruising and wot are good the big problem is the take off and cold start, I'm not running choke because...

I didn't, I set them at 29/32 but I'll try set them higher to see if it gets better, maybe its the floats like you said the idle mixture needed to be 4 turns out to have a good idle

the secondarys are fine, its just the off line using the primaries

mine is leaking a little on the bottom and the car is not launching hard it just dies (4speed), don't know if the fuel leaking could cause this or its clogged on the low speed. o-rings are good and don't leak. cold starting without choke is painfull too even on hot days. I dont want to get rid...

is it any good?

Hi, i got a 340 carter avs and notice that the discharge nozzle are quite different from another one that I have (from a 383) and they seem huge, anyone knows something about it? it looks like there is a number 622 or a 339 on it
