    B/RB Hydraulic Roller Cam & Lifter Question

    Why not go with a mild solid roller in your setup? You are going to have to change the springs & retainers along with a bronze geared oil pump drive and new push rods etc. I use a comp solid roller in .630 lift range with their 829-16 (solid outer body lifters) on a street car and it works...

On my bell (20 + years old) they give you 2 threaded mounting points for the ball stud, i used the lower (rearward) position. The Zbar is still a PITA to get in and out. I usually get my son or a friend to help me...

    440 Cam Choices

    Go through the bottom end if you planning on full time Drag racing. Have your machine shop clean up the bores and install some current pistons to raise the compression when they freshen everything up. A good valve job and some pocket porting will help the 452 heads or do the home porting with...

    Carb Help 440 GTX

    if you had any backfires you may have damaged the power valve on the 850. Or the carb is to fat. I used to run a similar setup with 87 jets all around. Check your float levels, fuel pressure and idle mixture screw settings. You can try setting them at 1 1/2 turns out from the seated position as...

    502" build open for criticism

    Hi Andrew, sounds like a good combo. I would double check the spring press required with the comp. roller. If its close to or higher than the 350lbs you will gall the rocker arms @ around 6 grand, did that myself. If your 6 pak is fresh i would try it as it is for a base line. Unless you dyno...
