Looks like you bought the EQ heads bare since you're using the .600 springs/retainers, and I'm assuming Mopar SS one piece valves.
Stock valves won't work, (1.92 intake) and they are two piece anyway...Junk

Check the valve stem clearance just to be safe.

you will need to buy a new set of edelbrock 1/8 inch header gaskets from autozone. The ones in that picture are way too thin. I use the eddy gaskets on my JBAs, the ones JBA sent leaked on me. Eddy gaskets are GREAT!!!

ALSO

are you just moving your AC condensor down or unhooking it. I am guessing moving it down. ebcause unhookingsomething with that much chemicals under pressure cannot be a good thing.

ALSO

if you have the external tranny cooler: YOU NEED TO DISCONNECT THE TRANNY LINES. So make sure you have the correct separators.

no i didnt buy them bare. they come with stainless valves installed. the springs are good to .515 lift. actually i dont even think i am gonna use the mopar .600 springs and retainers. my cam lift is .515. i dont want to over spring it. i bought the springs and retainers before i bought the heads. probably just gonna keep them incase i dont like the cam and want to go bigger.

here's the heads and where i bought them.

Can you reuse the 1.7rrs with that cam or did you get different rockers for the build?

remflex header gaskets is what i use. have them on the truck now for a couple years with no problems. got a new set already. though you can reuse the remflex ones. i have new ones. i actually have a new set the came with my eddie headers hanging in the garage.
i plan on just moving the a/c to the side. i hope.lol
i do have a tranny cooler. something i need to check out. thank you.


i am writing all this stuff down i need to get yet. i appreciate all your guys help. trying to make it a painless install.

reusing them. they only have about 3k or so on them. that is one of the reasons i went with the cam i did. trying to save a little money. cause the cam actually has .482 lift. but with the 1.7's it will put me at .515 lift. i am not wanting a real radical cam. love the lope sound, but donnt want the tuning issues. .544 is max safe lift on the 5.9.
