I ask Pat.M many Questions also . I really think he is for sure one of the Top BB Chevy know How and Build Guy's in the World . He also knows the good and Bad on Vortec Heads . 480" Lift on Stock GM Vortecs retainer to Valve guide boss clearance is near Zero and them Pressed in short Rocker Studs will want to start to Pull up and the added Valve Spring PSI will help in doing just that . You might get Lucky if You Grind down the bottoms of the GM Retainers to buy some more clearance and Hope the Factory Press fit them Studs tight ?Last edited by tango; 10-30-2009 at 09:28 PM.
Wisdom is acquired by experience, not just by age
Sorry for your loss of friend Mike McGee, Shine. Great trans men are few and far between, it seems. Sadly, Mike Frade was only 66 and had been talking about retirement for ten years that I know...
