I'm finishing up my 505 stroker with roller cam, lifters, and rockers. What is a good oil weight for this engine?

Thanks

Thanks!

I'm using a hydraulic roller cam in my 505 for the first time. So be nice. When putting in the roller lifters, does the lifter alignment bar go towards the cylinders, or towards the cam/center of the block?

Thanks everyone for your input. Now I can rest easy.

Is this coolant passage on the head gasket enough to properly cool the engine? It is also offset. thoughts ?

I have a couple of their kits on my vehicles. No complaints. Sad that they are going out of business.

Yup, that's the one that I have, and was thinking of using. Are you happy with the intake?

So, I scored a SD intake for my 505 that I'm building. $100. My question is; when using a square bore carburetor, what effect does the wider opening for the spread bore secondaries have? Or is it a non issue?

Other than checking the bearings as stated above, I would look for any witness marks on everything, since they are aftermarket brakes.

I use Purple Power also.

I had this happen on a 68 Camaro convertible. Jacked it up behind the left front tire, on the sub frame, and POP! I welded in frame rail connectors, and it solved my problem. It's hard to remember, but I think chevy used the adhesive caulk, instead of a gasket. I agree with everyone else. That...

I would hope that the valve wouldn't stick, considering the price. But the oil is Valvoline VR1 15w40.

I know it's been talked to death, but, I wanted to just mention what I found. I changed the oil in my car last week. I had the Motorcraft filter on it. I went with the Mobil oil filter. After sitting a while, when I would start the car, I would hear alot of valve train noise. It didn't do this...

When I did mine, I put the coupler on first, without the locking screw. Tapped it in place. Lube helps. Then I installed the column. Then locking screw with locktite.

To prove, or disprove the trunk seal theory, get some of the blue low adhesive tape, and tape off the seam, and test drive. No stink? There's your problem.

This is it. You already said the trunk needs adjusting. Seal that thing up.

Thanks. This is going in my 64 Sport Fury. I can see what my finances are after I get the main things done. Then I can consider the manifold, carb/efi, and headers. Thanks again. Very helpful.

I'm looking for as much useful input as I can get. Asking here is good because no one is trying to sell me anything. Not so much with parts suppliers, and machine shop. Andy I read your book, and I get most of what you said, but some things have changed since you wrote it, like TFS heads...

I love this kind of info. I read on a site that I needed a torrington bearing behind the timing set???
