In my opinion that’s about the best oil you can get. My boy Does run VR1 racing oil in his 83 Monte SS and that’s good enough for it but Driven is a so much better oil.
Me personally I’d order a fast fish retainer and use a 2 piece seal. I don’t like the fast fish seal for in engine seal replacement, it’s too pliable. The fast fish doesn’t use side seals. I’d also use permatex The right stuff black. If you put it back together correctly and this doesn’t fix...
Here’s mine but with 1.6 rockers. Sniper-X Flo Efi idling at 900 rpm. It’s only about 80% tuned. 1 7/8 TTi headers and 3” exhaust. 3.91 gears T-56 Magnum 6-speed. It’s one of the quietest roller motors I’ve ever heard in terms of engine noise.
What is Alpha N tuning? Fastman remotely tuned my car up to about 70-80% until I had an RFi problem that was caused my me which is now fixed. My car starts and idles great. The Sniper-X-Flo works awesome. I’ll never go back to carb, ever! My car pulls hard right out of the gate with the T-56...
440+40. 900 RPM. It will not run correctly unless you get it tuned with a laptop. Don’t even think about it. I went fully Sniper Hyperspark pump in the fuel tank. 3” exhaust
Right here right here!!! I’m running the same cam with TF 240. T-56 Magnum. 10.7-1. Compression. Holley sniper X-Flo. Fastman can tune it!!! 12” of vacuum at idle with the sniper. When I had the carb on it, it only had 7-8” of vacuum. I went ahead and put a Vacuum pump on it anyways.
I’m sorry. I don’t remember what viscosity my driven breakout oil was. My engine builder put it in there and then I changed it out and put conventional 15w50 in it but all it has is tuning time on it. After I read the articles about the 10w40 and roller lifters I’m switching it out and my engine...
When building a big block roller motor you really need to have your clearances matching the oil you need to run with your roller lifters, at least I think it’s good practice to.
I do not like those Comp roller lifters. Should have used Howard’s for your roller lifters but that’s neither here or there. Heres some literature. Even though it’s a roller motor, which is what I have also. I used Driven break in oil. At the current time I have 15 50 in it but I’m making the...
and yet this motor he did still leaked lol.
No leak is acceptable. There’s a few different ways the seals can leak because of clearance problems. Mine was leaking between the seal and the upper retainer I like a fastfish retainer because it has no side seals, notched for ARP Studs and it’s also...
