Push rod length question. - 04/25/09 02:12 AM
If my pushrods are too long what behavior can I expect from the engine?
Currently I have a vacuum leak that I can't locate and when I turn off the engine you can hear the valvetrain clicking. Also, with a 2400 stall converter and 3:91 gears the car is a little weak out of the hole and idles rough (rougher than one would expect). Below is a list of mods.
1) Stock 70 318 short block
2) Magnum heads milled .040
3) Mopar thin head gaskets
4) Mopar 7.625 pushrods
5) Mopar cam 280/474 (lift is 505 with 1.6 rockers)
6) Edelbrock Perf intake
7) Holley 600 vac sec
