Stud mounts on his heads . Should be set and gopedestal mount rockers? Are they shimmed at all?
yup stud mount....i just put new ones on a while ago and i did 1/2 turn and a bit to snug....i know their supposed to sound like a typewriter wich they do,just wondering if i can quiet them down a bit if i made them just a tad tighter?
Eh I needed all the help I could get with my small heads on the motor I did . The 1 3/4 deff sound better tooAlso if I ever added boost to my setup I would seriously reconsider my long tubes. I really only got them because when you have small CID and your naturally aspirated you need every bit of HP you can get from your bolt-ons which is why I got the LT's. Adding boost gives you silly HP and there is no need to bang your head against the wall working with LT's for that little extra HP gain unless you really don't mind it.
Do you have contact with your LT's and your AC line on the passenger side frame rail?Eh I needed all the help I could get with my small heads on the motor I did . The 1 3/4 deff sound better too

I did this time around . But that was with MLS gaskets . Last time I didn't and I had no issues . I don't think it's needed here but that's my opinionso do you guys re torque the heads after running the car?
