I agree also that there are "proprietary" components/ideas to an engine build.
Brent certainly has his ideas and others do as well - That is what makes this hobby (or profession) fun.

Is this forum used by individuals to advertise their private business? Of course.
Same happens on Yellow Bullet, Speed talk and every other forum.
It is a quick and cheap way to advertise -

I do think non-FE builds, dyno tests, information etc.. should be posted on the NON-FE discussion sub- forum.
Calling out members of the forum as trolls for suggesting this is crazy@!

A new sub forum labeled "Non-FE Dyno Results" would certainly help.
Flathead forums do not showcase FE's.
Pontiac forums do not showcase sbc or BBC's.

Many, many have left this once awesome forum. Now it's dominated by half a dozen users.
Again, sad to see.

I am not sure why the "FE Engine Dyno Results" is being used to showcase other engines.
Perhaps Jay should flag these and remove them - or create another posting area for "other engines"

Directly from the first post in this section:

This board is for posting information on the dyno results you have for your FE engine.  I have put a suggested format below, and put a couple of example engines on the board to start with.  You can copy the format from this sticky, and paste it into your post, and then fill in the information.  If you don't have all the info (very few people will), don't sweat it, just fill in what you have.  If you have a photo of the engine, either on or off the dyno, please post that also.  Comments always welcome.  Hopefully this board will turn into a useful repository of FE engine data.

One must always remember that the spring pressure is not directly below the attaching rocker shaft bolts.
There is that rocker arm which multiplies the 650 lbs (example) of the spring. The rocker arm is a lever, multiplying
the force as seen by the rocker shaft/attaching hardware.

With a 1.76 ratio:
600lbs of force at long end of rocker/lever.
600 lbs X 1.76 = 1056 lbs of force at the short side of the rocker/lever.
The pivot point (shaft centerline) sees 600 + 1056 lbs of force.

No wonder T&D race rockers do not rely on the 4 mounting bolts.

Tunnelwedge must have been born on the moon - or has zero experience with FE blocks.
I have seen several that had end to end and side to side issues - as Brent has mentioned.
And I haven't worked on many - certainly far, far less than Brent has.
FE blocks from Ford were nowhere near parallel or square - and it didn't matter for 8.5:1(9.5:1 LOL 2bbl) and 9.5:1 (10.5:1 LOL 4bbl) FE's.

From my research:

"Most stock street engines will run smooth enough if they are balanced to 1 oz. (28 grams), although many late model engines have much tighter factory specifications (as little as 4 to 6 grams). For a high-revving performance application, aim for the recommended 2 grams or less."

Which category would your engine be?

Run it!

From The Autotec 4032 piston instructions:

Applications Bore Range Min. Clearance
SB Applications 4.000-4.200 .0025-.0035+
BB Applications 4.200-4.600 .0035-.0045+

These are minimum values. You are at the minimum recommended on 7 cylinders.
I like to be a little above minimum recommendations. For me 0.0045" would be my happy place.
I would be honing the 7 other cylinders for more clearance - most certainly any that were below 0.035"
