    Are you running the edm lifters? As far as the 7000 rpm are you running anything beyond a hv pump and decent pan with windage tray?

    I've got a 340 on the stand for my sons 72 dart. I'm hoping the manifolds can take a solid 230/230 .489 on 108, but I'm having second thoughts after reading you et!

    Nice grind. Mine was 266/266 238/[email protected] .558" on 108lsa I believe the ramps were too steep. Now 278/286 248/[email protected] .558/.550 on 110lsa

    The sweep across the valve tip looks good. I spoke with Howards today and they said 335# open was not enough. The engine doesn't miss or break up at rpm. Tech sat its beginning to flat and cant control the cylinder pressure. I'm looking for a dual spring with 1.800 installed 360 -375# open...

    That's what my machinist suggested. I run a decent mechanical pump. I believe its about 90 gpm. 26/10/15 slick 4 speed, 3.55/ 3.91. 4.30 no exceptional change in 60'. I swapped to a 11.5;1 360 and a Schneider grind 246/.510 solid on 110 with 308 heads and same spec valve springs. 1.94 1.6 valves...

    Agreed. I have ran 3 different gears 3.55/3.91/and 4.30 no change. Recurved distributor and 3 different carbs. Gave up on the set up.

    Dual pattern cam makes up for poor exhaust port. Surely it won’t hurt. Oem heads are done by .440 lift. The comp 260 is another good grind. 212/212-.440

    looking for feedback on solid flat tapper vale springs. I currently run beehive 365 ci 135/335 on a 238/238 .560 lift but it doesn’t pull past 5400. Stepping up to a 12:1 414 this season 272/280 .590 any suggestions.

    I run early 318 heads with small valves 208/214 delta cam, and 9:1 in a w100 @ 4700 ft. 800 Rochester on a stock spread-bore. Save your money. Pulls from the bottom and hold 85on the freeway with ease 29” tire 3:55. 302 heads aren’t magic.
