It's not the lift you have to worry about it's the combination of duration and lobe intensity. The piston is well out of the way at max lift.
-
Dumb question but is the pipe plug installed in the back of the cam?
-
2 problems with offset grinding the crank that distance. 1. Getting the right rod/piston combo to achieve the deck height you need. Aftermarket stroker cranks have rod/piston combinations that are...
-
Is it a new crank or a reman crank? Often the parts stores cranks are cranks that have been cleaned, mag'd, and ground to an undersize. Check on the box or look on the front throw for an undersize...

Shot in the dark, aux drive shaft? With the cap off is the rotor turning?

Last set I bought I got from these guys
http://bprods.com/about.html
I did end up changing out the rod bolts to ARP's.
-
Tough to say. It is a different forging. The 95-97 rod is a F57E-AA and the 98-01 is a F87E. They both take the same rod bearing, the wrist pin diameter is the same, and I think the center to center...

5.39/5.20=1.036 x current rpm = new rpm at the same speed
If you were turning 7000 rpms before you'd now be turning 7256

It's tough to describe which way is up but with the engine upside down the outer diameter of the washer touches first. The shaft is setup with more of it sticking through to the distributor side....
-
The locking washer is still there because it can't go anywhere. It's trapped between the oil pump and the block so that's good news as it's not floating around in the oil pan. It's tricky but you can...

If 14 jet sizes over stock works in your setup then so be it. I just haven't found it to be the case in the engines I build which by the rules are somewhat close to what the original poster is asking...
-
If it's a stock 7448 Holley then the jets from the factory are 61's and the PV is an 8.5
If no one has fooled with the metering block or opened the air bleeds then a good starting point is 62's and...
-
I don't think there's any hating going on. Just folks trying to help. Another characteristic of lobe centers is that tighter lobe centers tend to be peaky horsepower wise. Wider lobe centers tend to...

Racer Walsh is full of it if they think a 230 duration cam will pull to 7500.
If you stay with a hydraulic cam and depending on how your head flows the 304H from Schnieder would be a decent...
-
The .479 hyd listed has 230@.05 duration which is only going to make power to around 6000 rpms. maybe less. Above that it really stops pulling. Also the 112 lobe centers isn't doing you any favors...
-
What Racer Walsh cam are you currently running?
-
One of the problems that jumps out is trying to turn 7700rpms with a hydraulic cam. Those two numbers just don't jive. The motor might be spinning that high but it's certainly not making any power.
-
The best way is to use a vacuum pump. Unfortunately most tracks don't allow vacuum pumps on mini-stocks. The next best thing is a pan-e-vac system. We tie ours into the breather port that's on the...
-
We run 10w-40 Amsoil which has worked well for us.
As far as the top groove or second groove question I don't know anyone still running a gapless second ring.
-
I use them as a top ring with napier cut second and a 12# oil ring. They make good power so long as you run a light oil and pull some sort of vacuum in the pan.
-
To add to that include the pressure plate. They are usually way off and are notoriously harmful to stock 2.3 cranks.
-
The piston and pin weigh 524g, the piston alone is 395g so it's a pretty heavy pin. The piston is a Sealed Power H676P30 the rod weighs 652g
-
So I got in one of these rods and a piston so I could do some caparisons. As stated the rod appears to be just a lengthened D4 rod. The cap still has the D4 number and the beam has roughly the same...

Application is a mini-stock,
rules: 2.3 Ford, no porting/polishing, mild solid cam .45 max, oem bottom end, stock type pistons (no forged) 10:1, 350cfm carb.
Has anyone ventured into using...

Does Mels have a website or any contact information? We're looking to upgrade our ignition over the winter.
