    Generally you will set them while on the base of the can lobe. Turn the pushrod and tighten the adjuster until you feel some tention while turning the push rod then turn the adjuster 1- 1 1/4 turns. That is usually about .030 I had the same exact set up in my engine all Hughes stuff

    Blower Surge

    I think it has something to do with the delay of air fuel mixture flowing over the screws in a roots type added to the extra duration on a blower type cam. I've never known of a centrifugal blower surging like what you're talking about.since the air is forcing the fuel in front rather than...

    Can I put her on her wheels?

    I wouldn't do it until you put the pan back in it you're just asking for trouble. You could go though and stitch weld some braces in all along where the pan normally sits and probably be okay.
