Tonight I bolted it up to the car. This weekend I'll try to fire it off.

I'll post a notice so you can listen for it. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/happy11.gif)

Here is another tip from my engine builder:

When running dual valve springs, use some big fat rocker arm shaft studs or the little baby stock ones will pull out of the head. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ohmy.gif)

Stock on the left vs big fat on the right. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

But Paul, the part that threads into the head looks the same size. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/confused24.gif)

The head end is the same size. Look at the other end.

But.... that thread will hold a tremendous amount of tension.... I have used them with triple springs with 500 pounds over the nose and revved to 8K with no sweat..

I use these studs on EVERY engine I build, even those that have single springs..

The weakness in the stockers is those shitty 7mm nuts! I have stripped them clean off the studs and left the rockers laying on the floor of the dyno room.

Paul, Go fire up that bitch!!

I must have misunderstood what Paul said. I thought that he said that the studs pull out of the head. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/rolleyes.gif)

Definitely beefier looking studs. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/chowtime.gif)

Ought to be a screamer Paul!!
