Jason did my 527 block before we moved here, the 518 street motor is not bushed. The 518 made 775 HP on Oregon pump gas with the same carb that the 527 made 845 HP on race gas, both with the same set of ported Indy 440-1 heads I have piched a roller lifter out(the old bracket Duster) when a valve spring broke and bent the pushrod, oil pressure went to zero, the 527 motor broke a Smith Bros pushrod on the dyno testing and both lifters came out, no oil pressure loss



Cab, is this with a STOCK OEM block?



Puting bushing's in the bores and "correcting" geometry with bushings are 2 different things.

Has anybody degreed their cam in on #1 intake and then went and checked say #8 intake lobe to see where it comes in at on a OEM uncorrected block?

I don't have enough parts to put something together to do this but someone may have the parts and time



I did mine when I assembled the new shortblock just because I was curious and it wasn't off but maybe .5 degree. Were any others off? I don't know but that's pretty darn close for an old Crane grind if you ask me.
