What modifications if any do you have to do to Eddy RPM heads for a .600 lift cam?? 60779 heads

Is anybody using Engine Quest Heads on their builds. I ran across an old magazine article were the builder used the heads and made 550 hp if memory serves me correct with a stock stroke 360 and a nice roller cam. All I seem to hear about are the RHS heads and Eddy's.

Anyone have an idea what size of combustion chamber is on a fairly stock set of W2 heads???

I'm thinking about purchasing an Holley 870 street avenger carb for my 340 dart. It is a vac secondary carb with electric choke. I realize some will say it is to big but the factory had 800cfm thermoquads. I was wondering if anyone has used this carb before? The motor is fairly strong with a...

I am currently piecing together a roller cam 408 for a future project. This will be more of a crusier than a racer. I want to build this for trips like the Hot Rod power tour or something similar or just driving to the car show 30/60/100 miles away. I have a chance to purchase a set of complete...

Can anyone tell me the installed height of Comp Cams 995-16 valve springs?

I was using a vacumn gauge to adjust my carb and only had 6" of vacumn. I sprayed around the carb flange and the top of the intake runners with no changes on the motor. I'm running a 340 with an airgap, eddy heads and a comp cam 284/296 dur 507/510 lift. Would that be normal for this motor?

I'm looking for a new balancer that is SFI approved that will work with the stock pulleys and not cause alignment problems. Any suggestions???

Did I read on here before to put a small amount of sealer under the rear main cap when I torque it down? Will this affect the clearance or anything else?

It's my understanding that on X & J heads the guides need to be cut down for camshaft with lift above 480". Is there a specific amount to remove? My Comp cam has .507 & .510 lift. Thanks

Those who had experience in installing eddy heads on a 340, Which lenghth of pushrods did you use? I have an hydraulic cam and want to install Comp cams roller rockers. I tried using the ones that came with 273 adjustable rockers and they appeared to be to short. My adjusters ran out of...

Is there a small block rod that is 6.125? I'm looking at a piston that uses this rod length. Or is it a typo?

Anyone know where I can download instructions on how to degree a cam? My comp cam shows the info at .006 on the cam card. My Summit instructs talk about everything at .050. I'm so confused.

I've decided to change cams in my 340. Looking at either a Lunati 60403 or 60404. My motor is a 30 over 340 with stock type pistons, J heads with 2.02 intakes, 780 Holley(3310), 3200 stall converter and 4.10 gears. I will install an air gap in place of the Weiand currently installed. We cruise...

What years of 360 motors came with roller cams? Wouldn't they be the most desirable motors to rebuid if you wanted to run a roller cam? Jeff

Are pistons for stroker motors different than other forged pistons? Is the pin location different? ?????

What push in breathers are you guys running on your cast valve covers? The instructions call for breathers with .750 dia. I can't seem to find them in the Summitt book. Thanks Jeff

I am running a Lunati cam. It has the advertized duration of 292 and 480 lift. If I change to 1.6 rockers how much will my lift increase? Will I see any performance gains? Seat of the pants or time slips only? That is the question. Thanks Jeff

Has anyone tried the crosswind intakes you see on Ebay? They have an airgap model for $150. Junk or what? Thanks Jeff

Are the combustion chambers the same size between X and J heads? My valve sizes are the same. 2.02& 1.60 Thanks Jeff

What are the differences between J heads and U heads? Thanks Jeff

My 340 that was just rebuilt has a lifter tick in it. It currently has nonadjustable rocker arms. I have a set that adjust that came on another motor. My question is how do you adjust them? What clearance do you use? Do you do it running with the valve covers off? Someone Please enlighten me...

I recently disassembled two 70 model 340's. One motor had the 2 top bolts drilled out that hold the cam retainer on to allow oil from the valley to drain on the chain and was assembled with a slinger. The other had no slinger or drilled bolts but has a tab that bolts to the bottom bolt on the...

I'm rebuilding my 340 right now and was wondering about changing the oil pump to high volume. I will be using the stock 5 qt pan. This will be mostly a street driven car but it will be abused on the strip also. Will a high volume pump run the pan dry? I have heard this can happen while making a...
