yea I was trying to hustle a hustler. I think we came out pretty even.
End Result:
He gets:
1 set stainless steel 2.02/1.60 Eagle Valves
1 set Eagle Chrome-moly pushrods
1 set comp cams dual-coil roller springs
1 set off brand solid roller lifters
1 Chet Herbert Solid roller cam
I Get:
1 set NEW(as in never been run) World Products S/R Torquer Heads; Assembled
stainless steel 1.94/1.50 valves, renegade stock type springs ready to
bolt on
1 aluminum low rise intake
1 classy-finish Holley 750 CFM Carb with Vacuum Secondaries
1 set tall chrome valve covers
1 set Eagle Chrome-moley pushrods
By making this trade, I'll have to buy a new set of cam and lifters; however, this way I can choose a cam, with the help of the wisdom of CHR, that will suit my needs and my engine.
After some checking around and some research, I think I'm going to invest in Comp Cams 268H Hydraulic Flat tappet cam. It's a pretty potent cam for a stock converter. I really like it.
750 is a bit much for what you could use. I am not going to tell you not to do it though. Everybody needs all the experience in tuning all kinds of carbs and carb sizes. Play with it and get your mojo on. At least the beast will run again and you will gain valuable experience by working with it.
Well, I got all of the parts today. Only thing wrong is that 2 of the pushrods are bent. What happened is this: the two intake bolts over the top of these pushrods were too long when the motor was put together. Simple fix, just put shorter bolts in that won't bend the pushrods. :whacked: No problems!
