Hi, ive started a build on a 440 engine I came across ( first time ive rebuilt an engine) and Ive been looking at comp cams products. Many of thier non-stock cams say that you need to run adjustable valvetrain. I wanted to know if this was true or not because aftermarket rocker s for mopars run...

I've heard that a 440Ci +long tubes can be a pita, but is it really? I want to throw some long tubes on my 440 before I drop it in my 71 charger and I will throw in a mini starter. So is it hard to make headers fit because if all it takes is a little love tapping at the tubes, im not afraid to...
