just rebuilt runs bad

just rebuilt runs bad

really now......isnt wad spelled with an a ? no panties here just an observance from a day or two of playing with mopars and noticing all the chevy guy mentality sticking its nose in where it has no real place....really.... if I was building a chevy I'd demand the same quality that it takes to build a mopar if I wanted my chevy to outrun a mopar. if there are sixteen valves in an engine wouldnt you want them all cut to the same heights? and the seats cut to the same depth? and the assembled height to be the same with the same spring tension at the closed position to be the same and at open position to be the same? oh I forgot were not talkin chevy here...were talking mopar we dont just slap it together in the dirt and adjust the valves.......it has to be put back together with care we like to outrun chevys so git yourself in line, if you have a problem with what I said about doing the job right go right ahead and spout off here...I didnt put anyone down but I did point out that the mopar has a fixed rocker shaft and a good machinist that knows his stuff can do a valve job and get the preload on the lifters after cutting the valves the seats and the stems correct without changing pushrods or needing adjustable rocker arms so if you can unwad your panties and figure out why I would say that then you would understand that .080 on one lifter and .060 on another lifter is unacceptable then you can explain this to these guys here, they want quality and what I had said gits them going in the general direction to get that quality....you wanna be a chevy machinist go right ahead and be all you can be buddy boy but a mopar guy can make a chevy run faster farther and longer

Don't need to get your panties in a wod, there just opinions, no need trashing others opinion just because your trying to get your point across.

Could it be the vavletrain, sure it can, but do you realize how much preload would be needed on a hyd. lifter to keep a valve hung open, a good .080", I'm sure the machinest isn't a total idiot that he didn't know it had fixed rocker shafts, the cam isn't that big, so the only way it would start hanging valves is if the heads were milled a ton or the block was decked quit abit.
