Yep I can do that. Same thing as we're using for our EM engine this year but ours will be limited travel...would you like limited travel Ron?



Well, Brian, I would like my valvetrain quiet and long lasting. And, these tappets in my 406 Mopar crate motor are probably production pieces and seem to work very well. I am not looking for that last 10 HP or that last 300 RPM. I want quiet reliability, but with consideration that I have a race cam.
So, probably not because I do not intend to zero lash them or lightly preload them. I want enough preload to account for any wear. So at least 1/2 turn, maybe one turn.

The tappets we are supposed to be getting for this motor are supposed to be here any day now, but as usual there is promise after promise being broken probably just to keep us on the hook. They were supposedly being assymbled on Tuesday June 8th and then red labled to me. Sure seems like a long time to put 16 tappets together.

Right now, I will use whatever I can get. This is beyond pathetic.
