340 Vs 360

Just out of curiosity, what are your thoughts on the rigidity of this engine lift plate... which is only held on by four 5/16" bolts?

Is it as stable as a chevy rocker arm, or would it need a lot more bolts? :poke:

Come on dude. Now you just want to argue.

To compare that lift plate to eight rocker arms working on eight valve springs at 50 or 60 times a second is just stupid.

Set the engine on the ground and then jerk it straight up two feet and then stop it. Then slam it down as fast as you can until it barely touches the floor and see how long those little bolts hold up. It won’t be long.
