    New 408 build finally started

    What a shame, I was looking forward to seeing this finished. There sure is a lot of work relocating the pushrods. I don't think the money/time spent was worth the gain for me but we didn't go overboard with porting as mine is a streeter that will occasionally see the track. Really enjoy your...

    Carb for 408

    I ran a custom 750 holley on my 565hp 408 and it was perfect. I now have an 850QF on it making 600hp with bigger cam and better heads Made an extra 9hp with a 950QF but lost too much torque

    OIL MODS

    Crossing the line at around 7000rpm. But with better heads and larger solid roller it will rpm a little higher I assume The bottom end is apart so I want to spend money now and make sure it's the best it can be. Don't want to pull the engine again

    OIL MODS

    Hi All, I'm looking for advice to make my small block stroker last with the odd blast to 7500rpm over the 1/4 mile. I've looked through the post from Guitar Jones. Is there anymore to be added? Did 3 runs last year and ended up doing in number 8 bearing crossing the line just over 7000rpm I...

    Head Studs

    No there is no confusion. We were doing both. Moving the pushrods over was a decent gain but we are trying for as much possible.

    Head Studs

    I'm not 100% sure but my porter is turning my heads into Bigmouth. Its something to do with widening the port or short turn, something like that.

    Fabricated Valve Covers

    Hi Gents, As the title says I'm looking for a decent set of the fabricated aluminium valve covers that will clear roller rockers and won't leak. Hopefully quality without breaking the bank. Has anyone used a set they could recommend thanks.

    Finally hit the track with my sons new engine

    Yeah that's true, but what happens to that pressed in rod when half of it is drilled away with the new pushrod hole. Is the new pushrod hole sleeved?
