Now that sounds HEALTHY! Are you getting itchy foot yet? Rarin' to get it out on the trail?

 

That is sounding amazing. Keep up the good work 👍.

 

I'd really like to see what kind of dyno #'s those efi 6 pack set up's can do. Especially on a big block!

 

I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed that.

Thanks Frankie.

 

Been listening to the engine and think that I've got some loose rockers as I can hear some lifter rattle.

 

Is your valvetrain adjustable?

 

Yes the Scorpion rockers that I used are adjustable.

 

Awesome. I now on the old chevy's, I would adjust the valves with the engine running. Can be quite messy though. Once I had the little clips to deflect the oil though, it was easy, and worked great. Not sure if you can do the same on the Mopar though.

 

Yep, reminds me of my old Chevy 283 days and adjusting the lash on my engine. I had those little clips too but they won't work with the Scorpion roller rockers. I do have a set of stock valve covers and was thinking about an other old trick where you cut the top out of the valve cover to help keep 90% of the oil inside. This seems like the best option with the least amount of mess.



THe oil still comes thru the pushrods but once it's in the rocker I'm not sure how it's routed from there but there had to be some internal passages I'd guess.



Guess I'll have to have it running to really look and see what's happening.

Do you hear the rattle?

 

Yeah, is it just me, or is it more prevalent on the passenger side?

Topping the old valve covers should work pretty good. Same procedure as on the chevys.
