« on: October 01, 2023, 04:11:00 PM »............wondering if i can/should stack inserts...
All I could say is good luck with that!
Aka...........no, don't try it!
Scott.
Noted, wont try that.
I've built some SBFs with Callies cranks that had a stud and nut for the balancer. Is that an option for you or are all the threads gone?
It might be an option, i will see...

Yup, got it in my cart... longest insert seems to be .98, wondering if i can/should stack inserts... guess .98 is 1.5 times bolt diameter so it theoretically should be plenty.
Bigger issue seems to be that i cant seem to find a 41/64 drill guide or 5/8 tap guide. moderately concerned about getting it straight...

That Crower is a pretty mild cam, should be close to stock like idle on a 390 (are we sure it's a 390?) Stock truck internals or car internals?
Do the exhaust valves have rotators installed?
It would be nice to try to identify the old cam, do you still have it and does it have any markings on it.

Coming back to this, anyone know the tread diameter and pitch, looking at options.
The ARP bolt is pretty long already.

Not having any luck so far on lifter part number, maybe this pic will help.
Found what at I think is the pushrod length @ 9.062 - does that even sound in the ballpark?
Most of these parts are Circa 2005/2008 IIRC

Howards make a cam they claim to be a near duplicate of the CJ cam.
I haven't used it though.

Rory, You understand correctly.
Nightmist, yes the same pushrods.
Brent, i wondered if the lifters were oiling through the pushrods, but when i primed it last time that did not seem to be the case, i will test this again and i guess if they really should be oiling and aren't i need to investigate that as well.
Im also now remembering there were two springs specified at the time and i may have used the heaver spring - I thought i had run this down a while back but cant find it. It wasn't much heavier IIRC.
