Ford 390 Rockers and shafts
390 Rockers and shafts
It's taking me a long time it seems to finish this motor but all I lack at this point is the Valve train.
The machine work is done. It is balanced and I had the block decked to square it up, crank turned, rods resized, and 9.5-1 pistons. The valves and heads are ready to go as well. Nothing radical but I've already got $2K in the motor. This is the high performance 390 in my 65 T-bird. I want to be able to light up the tires once in a while!
Question is, my rockers and shafts are worn out and I was looking at the Harland Sharp roller rockers/Comp Cams roller rockers verses the Stock set-up. Anybody have advice one way or another? There is a Harland Sharp now on ebay with the bid a $250, the Comp Cams set up will run around 500+.
This is not for race but for fun!Smooth Rides are nice
RIP Mike....prayers to those you left behind. .
