You do know that Esslinger is in the LA area right? We do all that work in house.

The R5724-8 is a projected tip plug.

If you have a head where the plug is close to the deck or piston, you can go with a NGK DCPR7E or NGK BR7EFS

We have built a few stout Zetec and Durtec engines in our time...

We have a couple cams that can do that, check out www.esslingeracing.com and look at cams pn# E2263 & E2264.5 ...

If he has a conventional mill, all he has to is press the sleeves in, and then mill down the boss' to flush with the sleeves. It's that simple!

They are similar on the outside as far as appearance, but they are miles apart in construction! The post on the Esslinger pulley is WAY stronger.

I believe what you're seeing is an uncovered main jet for the barrel closest to the driver's side. You can raise the float level some to see if that helps, tilt the carb with an angled spacer, or...

We have one at Esslinger that we call a .400" lift rule cam. It would be my recommendation. Let me know if there's anything else I can help you with.

If you're really set on wanting the roller bearings, Esslinger could supply you with them. I will tell you though that they don't make a lick of difference on horsepower!

You could go the less expensive route of offset grinding a Ford OEM 2500 crank, or the stronger billet crank. We offset grind the 2500 crank up to 3.580" using our ULD rods with 1.850" journal. I...

Yes, the pistons are different for the two cranks...

If you can measure from the wristpin hole to the flat top surface of the piston, the 2.3 crank should measure roughly .646", while the pistons...

That sounds like you have a couple questions I can answer for you:

First off, YES, a roller cam is more powerfull than a solid non-roller cam hands down!

As for comparing the SVO and aluminum...

We have about 35-40 sets of padded rockers left in stock at Esslinger... $235 a set, just like they were before they were discontinued.

Take spring away from the front...

Hmmm... Melling rockers with a coating like everyone does on their bearings?

Please let me make a correction here... The Chevy Inline 6 cylinder engines have a rod that is 5.700" long, and some companies (Speedway) do rework them to fit in a Ford 2300, but you can't just use...

What cam grind, and what valvetrain (i.e. valves, retainers, rockers, etc...)?

Why don't you post up your corner weights, that might help get better feedback:

LF
RF
LR
RR

And the vehicle it's in...

You'd be doing good to go with the Esslinger 2270 cam. It's 258@ .050" and comes in at .468" lift on a 107LSA. Over the years, that cam has won more races in Mini-Stock than any other cam...

The 8993PT-1 head gasket is a standard folded fire ring style gasket with a 3.920" bore and it's .051" thick when compressed.

The 1035 head gasket has a stainless wire inside the fire ring. It...

Esslinger makes/ sells them, or you can just shorten the ones you already have...

We o-ring the deck on all our hi-po engines, and NEVER have to worry about headgasket failures. We use the standard Felpro 8993PT-1 cheepie headgasket too!

What are your rules regarding cylinderhead? What size engine are you running currently? At only 7400rpm, there's no reason to not run as much stroke as you can! Going from a 2700 to a 3147 should...
