    HUGHES rocker shaft hold down kit, studs, restricts oil flow? see pic...

    Thanks. Well looks like the Hughes studs certainly aren't going to be a problem, too much oil pressure up there. I need one of those valve spring compressors, does someone sell that or did you fabricate it yourself?

    HUGHES rocker shaft hold down kit, studs, restricts oil flow? see pic...

    well enough said. thanks for sharing that info. next engine i think i will just buy a complete isky roller kit, with the iron rockers included, like I should have this time around. i just dislike spending the money twice when i should know better. if the crane golds hold up as well as the set i...

    HUGHES rocker shaft hold down kit, studs, restricts oil flow? see pic...

    So possibly aluminum shaft mount rockers for all mopars are a big waste of time, and worse for valve rpm ability than iron rockers? because ive thought that path, and wondered why ISKY roller cam kits even up to their biggest off shelf listed ( .700 or so) roller for mopar BB comes with nothing...

    HUGHES rocker shaft hold down kit, studs, restricts oil flow? see pic...

    Thanks yeah ive got the milodon prime tool, done all that before. There's no doubting oil will flow through, it's just difficult to know at high rpm's if it's enough volume getting through. Only solid dyno testing at those rpms or just running them in a car for long enough to know it's not an...

    Post your 9 second or Faster combo's

    I never thought I would see a low 9 with a 750 Eddy carb, even if it is x2. Nice setup :headbang:

    HUGHES rocker shaft hold down kit, studs, restricts oil flow? see pic...

    I've just sat the shaft any which way as somewhere to rest it. Holes will be the correct way when the rockers go on - - - Updated - - - Thanks, good to hear! I wasn't sure if it would be an issue, I just wanted to hear from people using them. It's a good kit, i don't like winding threads into...

    HUGHES rocker shaft hold down kit, studs, restricts oil flow? see pic...

    Checking everything before the heads go back on and I notice... Difficult to tell in the pics but the stud is a lot thicker than the factory bolt, after the threads it tapers out wide, making the oil passage around it very tight. Seems oil could possibly be restricted to the shafts. Anyone...

    440 Magnum Rebuild advice needed

    OK i know ive talked a heap but im having a mopar bb 'back to the future' kind of moment. Just to get back on topic just to simply answer your question, yes the camshaft will govern the engine output but not more so or less so than other mods. Without getting into specifics, if you followed my...

    440 Magnum Rebuild advice needed

    Well here is my experience with 2 of my own 440's back in the late 90s, I never kept them for enough years to find out what eventually happened to them, but the one was a 69 steel crank engine, it was still standard bore, i bought it as a good runner, had the machine shop torque plate hone it...

    MP distributor problems. Am I the only one?

    I would never set a distributor at 35 if it climbed to 50. the Mopar Performance distributor from memory used to begin low and then very quickly reach its maximum advance by 2000-2500 (somewhere there, its been years since I used one), and stay that way all the way to redline. This one I bought...

    Do You Own Big Block MP Valve Covers?? Please Read This ... and Share

    i guess Mopars are junk then. they made a stupid valve cover and we should all convert to Ford and Chevies. yes im being sarcastic. no not towards you. just in general. the covers are about the only thing I could personally fault from Mopar Performance for not being totally bulletproof, other...
