rocker shaft assembly
« on: November 26, 2018, 11:45:13 PM »
Getting ready to put the(new) heads (Edel)  on the 427.Now this is a street engine and doesn't see high rpm very often.Cam is a old Comp 270S...I have all Harland Sharp stuff for the rocker assemblies..My question is...Should I spend the time fitting the solid rocker spacers or are springs good enough for my application.I would imagine I would be lucky to put 500 miles a year on the car...
I used springs when I put the engine in circa 1988 and never had a problem.
I don't mind spending the time fitting them just not sure if I need to...
