    426 Hemi variable oil pressure

    Good afternoon, Gents thanks for your input so far. This did help towards finding what we think is the issue: the main bearing shows severe wear to the side of the block and started to rotate as well...causing the oil pressure leak. Unfortunately the main bearing caps are gone / worn down. We...

    426 Hemi variable oil pressure

    thanks, from what I find lunati grind 10230703 is the last one before things end up beyond 2800 stall and nitrious. However lift and lobe are identical to the above. Which one would you recommend specifically?

    thankyou lewtot184 I tought the clearance was enough actually, but I ll see upon assembly ;) regarding CR.. I only have 98 octane or more on my part of the planet and wanted to use that potential. Regarding your thoughts on the cam, I thought about the xtreme energy listed above or a magnum cam...
