408 Build Thread

I used MP hyrdaulic lifters and also the 1.5 rockers Scorpion, I thought I went wish the 1.6 but my parts list show part number for 1.5, I need to ask builder if he put 1.6 in. While there is potential power gain from that difference there is reliability trade off?

Man it really sounds like we have extremely similar builds. I did a half fill block as well.

Oh and just a tip I got from my builder, he advised me to use BND Automotive ACES 4 fuel additive, he said it will add 400-600% life to the cylinder walls and rings. Using HP forged pistons usually or always require thinner rings, so they can wear very fast according to him. I'm not as educated on some of this so I go with what "my guy" tells me.
