Mcneish breaks in all of his engines on the dyno so there are no issues.......period. Our 302 included which made well over 400+ HP on Burtonsville Machine's conservative dyno. He also tunes and stagger jets the carb with a set up like the Stockers run.......lots more power made.

Many forget about valve spring pressure on the seat. Too much will do the same thing to your cam. No more than 120 lbs on the seat with a small block. Anymore than that, you're asking for trouble.

The more I see these items, the more I like rollers. You had the right idea with your Nova Ken! Any good burners like Charley? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/[/img]
