I have a set of aluminum heads that I am building, and when measuring for Installed Height, I get 1.920; the spring recommended for my cam has an installed height of 1.8", So I am off by .120", but I will use a .060 spring locator, which leaves me .060 left. Can I run a shim with a locator? Is...
I don't do much with cast iron heads anymore, but I am freshening up a set of heads on a Jeep and would like to put positive seals on it. I hate to buy one for just one set of heads. I have the correct arbor need the cuter. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
They have a 2.08 intake. When I did the equation, it said I should use a 106. From the input, sounds like that is still too tight for my application so I will probably do with something a little wider
I think many don't want to go two sizes smaller unless they have to. I think many, including me, are looking for the best balance of power and driveability. If my engine is down 5-10hp, but it is better on the street, I'll take it.
Maybe I am just stupid. I do have some concerns over the valvetrain geometry since it's already a struggle with a flat tappet, but I am confident that I can get it pretty good. I plan on pulling the intake and checking rollers periodically and staying on top of them. Lord knows I have broken...
I appreciate all your input, and although a tighter LSA would give me better all-around power and better low end, maybe this cam with a 110 LSA might be better for the street since I am using EFI and have a 4-speed.
Does it matter that my self-learning is disabled since I have a professional tuner? Can a good tuner tune around narrow LSA? Or is it not worth the extra you get from an optimal LSA? Thanks in advance.
Could you elabrate on this? I didnt know a throttle body injection would affect it? Not sure if it's easily explainable, but if so, I would love to hear it.
The rods are 6.123" and from Molnar. I don't have the pistons with me, they are at the machine shop, so I am not sure of the part number. Let me see if I can get a part number this week.
I am building a stroker 340 with a set of trick flow heads. It's a Molner 3.79 stroke with their H beam rods and Wisco forged pistons. The compression ratio is going to be 10.6:1. OTB Trick Flow Heads with Hughes 1.6 rocker arm. I have an Edelbrock air gap and Victor Jr for intakes (Any input...
I have a Saganaw pump from CVF with a stock gearbox and stock steering components (Not rack and pinion). The power steering seems too good. I feel like I am one sneeze from putting it in the ditch. I would like more road feel and a little more effort to steer. I have used pressure reducers on...
