Hello, I have a 318 magnum engine 5.2 stroker modified 390 with original heads, I assemble a comp camshafts CCA-20-745-9 with springs Mopar P5249464, I would like to know if can I use: push rods, lifters and rockers original or if I should replace with others,
Today I started the engine for the first time but I feel that does not run so well, you hear a noise / vibration
Thank you, sorry for my language but I write from Italy

 

I am new here, but I have built a ton of engines. I would not use the lifters. You could get away with the push rods and rockers but if the budget allows I would just upgrade all of it.

 

What part of Italy are you from? I've been to a few spots during my time in the Navy. Met some really great people in Italy.

 

I live near Milan, you know?

 

I know of it, but never been. I have made numerous trips to Trieste and Naples. Really enjoyed Trieste!!!

 

I know some people form Milan area...Ugo Barzano. DI E Barboglio Barzano. I have a number of bottles of wine from there from 1983.....
