    Carb vs. EFI Tall Valve Covers

    So I found that my rockers are hitting the valve covers even though I was told by a mustang shop they would clear. I saw some tall one I like but said they were for carb. I was wondering what the difference between the carb valve covers and the efi ones.

    What next?

    I just remembered that the guy before was running a custom cam and I am running the stock one. If I have the wrong size pushrods could this be the problem. I used the pushrods that he gave me, didn't even think about it. Decided to change all the vacuum lines to silcone ones, just waiting on...

    What next?

    The timing is set to 10 with the spout out and I did have a leak at the lower intake to head. I had to heli-coil the head (exhaust was getting cherry red) but all bolts torqued to 21 ft so I assume that it sealed.

    What next?

    If I take the valve covers off and run the engine to see if the clacking is still there is the only problem going to be oil flying everywhere.

    Speaking of tuning, will changing the rear end gears make a different in the tune. I know the gears don't effect horsepower or torque. I want to do a dyno and tune but I am going to change the gears and was wondering what the effect would be.

    Guys with aluminum heads?

    Sorry, though my sig was on. Yeah I have TFS heads I bought used, guy said they just had 10k miles on them but don't know about that now. Exhaust was turning cherry red so when I went to check the lower for loose bolts had two spin on me so decided to go with the studs.

    Guys with aluminum heads?

    I do mine three steps: 96 in/lbs 12 ft/lbs 15 ft/lbs just to be safe but I don't see doing it in one step as a problem. I recently had problem with the bolts tightening so I went to studs.

    Supercharger hp question

    Just to answer, I am running the stock cam and ignition right now, and there is a place two blocks down the street that tunes. :D When I do get the sc I will research into a cam and other parts. I was just worried about the tranny. It sounds like I should upgrade the tranny before I get the sc.

    I was thinking 300 at the flywheel. Also I was thinking the 350 hp rating for the AOD was at the flywheel.
