408 stroker build
#201
Not sure what head you are running, but with that cam and lifter combo your way beyond the capabilities of a stock head and approaching the capabilities of the Edelbrock heads. All I'm saying is if you run the stock heads or eq heads your going to have to get them machined for taller valve springs so you will get all the lift of that cam and rocker arm combo.

this engine was professionally built buy a local race shop. all the correct parts are there. im just tearing it down and cleaning it up, as it sat for five years and was never run.
i have ported/polished R/T 1.92s and double valve springs, which i know are not stock. im just trying to figure out the potential of this motor, not whether or not parts are compatible.

You need another cam...Or 1.6 rockers, but you'll still be .528/.536 wiht 1.6s
But the short "nose-solid" notation on the cam card makes me think it's goona need an extesnion on the front to make it work with you magnum block, and it's solid roller cam....
I'd get a cam ground to suit your build and 1.7 rockers....

The motor was assembled, and ready to fire when he got it, so, I am going to guess that everything necessary for the build is already there. It is also possible to set up the heads with good springs, etc, to be good to .600 lift, without too much trouble. Something to check? You betcha.
Installed Height on the springs
Coil bind
Seat pressure/open pressure....?
Just things I'd like to know. And he HAS to know what springs he is using, no guessing here.
