Its all a big compromise. The lighter the rocker, the less valve spring needed to keep the valvetrain stable at high rpm. In the same respect, the straighter the pushrod, the less lift required to open the valve an equal amount (tangents). The rocker weight could be overcome with more spring pressure, but there is no real cure for bad geometry.

I would say for 11k rpm,keep the pushrods as straight as you can and thats unfortunately the rocker length you end up with. If you can alter the fulcrum point, keep a mild ratio. It sounds like you need a DOHC Hemi!

And where is Charlie?




Shhh!, thats the next step if this design works. I'm trying to design true canted valve big block mopar cylinder head that will make power somewhere between the Predator and Pro Stock cylinder heads but also capable of being put on a stock block.

There is a story on Class Racer.com about CW having a fire at Columbus. It sounds like it could have gotten real ugly if not for some help from a few racers. I tried to post a link but could not get it to copy.

I`d like to know also, I`m coming down to help a friend running S/ST on Saturday. We drove down last year just to watch the Challenge and it was Cool!, so was the one at Mopar action at the Grove.

I expect the same 10 as the summer race plus a few others. Vegas has odds on a "three-peat"????

It will be a real trick to come up with a better head than already available for the BB mopar. To get anymore valve or combustion chamber size means spacing the cylinders out, then at that point the motors can be made in the mega cubic inches like the chebbies

Back home. Thanks to the Howes for a tour of St. Johns NS last week. Getting ready for duck season and covering the duck blind with page 78 & 79 of the Sept. 23rd National Dragster. LOTS OF CAMO!!! Nice shots of Wolk, Cake and Tyler as well. Waiting on the Jegs Northern Sports Nats photos to cover the boat. It's like getting a refund...

Actually I do fish almost every day. Have a single digit golf handicap as well. My anchors will probably outrun your customers. And who knows, when I get the last IED you sold me removed this winter, may outrun you! Then we will rename her from Sledphish to Flying Pig.....
