    Head swap

    Just wanted to thank everyone for your help! I just got the push rods today from Summit. 7.550 did the trick. Super quiet and smooth now! That's amazing what a difference that small amount of length made!

    Head swap

    I've never heard of them. I already ordered the longer push rods from Summit 7.550 so will see if hopefully they'll do the trick.

    Head swap

    I'm not running it anymore. Hopefully I didn't already damage them. It's a crane cam i installed 3 year's ago. It was new then. Just swapped to different heads this time. Same cam that I already had in it. 454 lift

    Head swap

    Thanks for your help guys. I was looking at that exact size push rod online last night. 7.550 I think you are right it is just sitting on top of lifter and not depressing it at all. No up and down play just looks like exact size without depressing it at all. Hopefully I didn't ruin my lifters by...

    You guys were right. I rotated it to number one top dead center on the compression stroke pulled the valve cover and I could spin both push rods easily with two fingers.

    That makes sense. Head gaskets are .040 compressed thickness. Machine shop says valves are installed to stock spring height so you can use your factory valve train.

    Head swap

    The engine also has a 454 lift cam that I installed about 3 years ago. The 302 heads were ported and opened up for the bigger 1.88 valves. Really runs strong just makes a lot of clatter and it didn't make noise before. Everybody was saying the 302's bolt right on and go. Didn't think of the...

    Head swap

    Ok, thanks guys. I will check it when I get home. I didn't think of the valve stems being a different height. I used .040 thick head gaskets.

    Head swap

    I didn't measure it, but the rockers seem to be about the same as on the other head maybe a little bit tighter.

    Head swap

    Swapped heads on a 73 dodge dart 318 went from stock heads to a set of 302 castings with 1.88 stainless valves. Engine runs great but now has a lot of lifter clatter and it didn't have it with the stock heads. Any suggestions on why?
