Yeah, Mechanical roller.

[HarrisonTX]

Yeah, Mechanical roller.

I see why you "lol"ed at the "run the valves" comment. Alot of people dont understand that sound. Dont be surprised if no one gets the joke.
Sounds like you've got it running.

I put it up there because I knew I'd get that comment, only the special "trained" ear knows that sound - and beautiful sound it is.


A little background, I've had this motor together for 5 years - actually last summer I took it apart to inspect it and put it back together. Now, it's finally in the car (not the car it was intended for) and it runs. It's a 331, Iron Eagle (all 5 mains are 4 bolt), steffs pan, the new comp ultra light pro magnum rockers etc... I suspect it will make 400RWHP or so N/A and about 1200RWHP with the turbo.

Sounds broken, I'll take it off your hands for cheap!

Jankety POS!! :biggrin:

I always crack up at horrified onlookers' faces when someone pops the hood on a bitchin solid cammed car. There's just some things you can't do with a TFS Stage II cam!

[Purpillhaze]

Sounds good, I should be ready in a few weeks to go to the dyno, I just need to get ahold of a trailer. PM me and let me know if that will work for you and $$.

LOL, yeah. The bad part is - it's a tight lash roller, it's only .016 on both sides. It's a baby cam too, like .609 valve lift.

Here's the other end -

[bubba stiff]

sounds like you need to change your gears in the rear.

Ehh the turbo will quieten it up.
