    Bob weight for a stock 426 hemi engine?

    As Doug said most of these cranks today that they call Hemi cranks are really wedge cranks. You have to have really light components to get under 2500 grams. (I think that's what an Eagle crank starts out with.) And some are lighter than that. Nothings easy about building a Hemi today.

    Hydraulic Roller Cam Button End Play

    I don't remember which chain I used last time but it's usually a nightmare. Superformance make a .062" gasket that would help for starters. And people always ask why it takes so long to build an engine nowadays.

    Hydraulic Roller Cam Button End Play

    WOW, it looks like you have a long way to go. The idea is you keep grinding on the button until it fits. Hope you can do it without hitting the cam bolts. Don't go too far. You can't put it back on. 5-10 thou is fine but remember that's after the cover is torqued down. Did I ever tell you cam...

    Hemi Spark Plug Tubes

    You may not have Edelbrock heads with another set of o-rings in the head. It make them a lot harder to get out.

    Hemi valve lash

    I've never seen a Hemi cam spec cold. You must assume that is hot. With aluminum heads you can set it .007" tighter cold and that will get you close. I haven't put anything together with iron heads in so long I don't know, maybe .004" tighter.

    I have a regular flaring tool. What should I be looking for?

    Fuel Line Flare

    But it looks sexy and I would like to know how to do it. It does looks more functional than just slipping it over the tube.

    Early 400 C.I. "superblocks"

    As far as I know the last casting for the heavy main web was 10-10-71 but that isn't a fact. Nor does that mean all the ones before that are.

    71 plymouth roadrunner 400 stroker needs intake manifold that is same height as stock for air grabber hood.

    The Holley Street Dominator is 13/16" higher than a 69 383 Magnum intake. I call the 440 air grabber base 1" shorter, so it looks to me like you can make it work.
