Love the build. Just watch out, the factory springs can float past 4200 rpm. Also the rocker arm studs are press fit, not screwed studs Springs and threaded studs would should be the next mod since You're now cammed.

I ran into valve float issues under boost last summer, in lieu of aftermarket valve springs I’ve now got .060” shims under new stock valve springs to up the seat pressure and I haven’t had any issues since
@levinalder17452 жыл бұрын
@@WastedPaycheckGarage love the truck and want to see more. Just be carefull about those press in studs then. Back when people raced these engines in the day it was common to pop those rocker arm studs out with increased spring pressure and rpm. Do you think you'll do a dyno day sometime. I'd love to see what your making to the wheels.

They make a cheap kit to stud the stock press in rockers, I believe it technically for a ls but works for 4.9
