New fuel pump and .060 shims the car runs great all the way to 5500 ish 12.87@103 in a 3600 lbs Fairlane with 3.89 gears Very happy
Amazing what just a 1/16" of extra squeeze will do for you Good info for people to use as research!!
What's probably happening is that he's getting closer to coil bind at full lift. My work years ago on the SOHC valvetrain showed how this quiets down the surging motion of the spring coils at high rpm. I found that setting up for around 0.050" from coil bind at full lift gives you the full benefit while staying safe. The NASCAR guys run about 0.003" from coil bind
Hey, Bill! Can you repost a few of your SOHC spring vids again? They were so cool and with the passage of time, I'll venture newer members never saw them.
