Could Edelbrock have been referring to settling of the valve seats? That may happen but if it does, lash will decrease instead of increase as it...
Valvesprings do not effect lash. Any "spring settling" would be captured between the spring seat and retainer.
I don't necessarily buy into the theory that a numerically higher ratio always results in quicker acceleration. While it may be true in a great...
This is slightly reminiscent of another thread I encountered today. http://forums.thedieselstop.com/ubbthreads/showflat.php?Cat=&Number=2594070
Being in your "comfort zone" is very important. Increased compression will also enable you to run a little more camshaft which will allow you to...

Are there any other cowl sizes available?
How tall is the cowl scoop?
Has Hell frozen over? I actually agree with you on this. If you think their customer service is terrible, you should see the quality of UP's...
I have to respectfully disagree with the notion that he should use aftermarket connecting rods since his list of parts and the motor's intended...
Yes a 351W will fit. Headers are the biggest issue. I hope your primary tubes are no bigger than 1 5/8". I recently learned on this board that...
The only thing I can think of is that there are steel braces available. They are required on new garage door installs down here (west central FL).
If the camshaft has any wiped lobes, the motor really needs to be thouroughly disassembled, cleaned and inspected. It sounds like you are using a...
No, you do not need to seal off the distributor hole to fill the lifter galley (thankfully that it is one of GM's "bright" ideas, not Ford's). All...
Can you install 4 lug bearings and plates on a 5 lug axle?
Minispools for a 9" will work in an 8" so I imagine the axles would work as well provided they have the same spline count, length and you use the...
Promises, promises.
