WOW Mike ... Awesome pictures... My wife is going to get lucky tonight because I am definitely sporting a chubby now...ha ha ha
I don't own the car yet... If you think that Armando's pan will fit in an E-M kit I will order it... Do you have his phone number/part number?
I went and did a search on the CC for Dove heads and I think that I will opt for the Edelbrocks like you suggested.. Thanks again... I may get them unassemble and let "my guy" have at them with a mild port job... Any suggestions on valve seat angles?
In that first motor, who's rocker assembly is that? I see the second one is Shelby's... In looking for the head info it seemed that a lot of guys on this site liked the Erson roller rockers & stands... Any experience with those? The Ersons are adjustable but on their site they said you could use them with either mechanical or hydraulic lifters... Again, I was planning on using a Hyd. roller cam which is being made for me...
Jon, to answer your question about why a custom ground cam... The guy who is doing my machine work does these in his shop and is trying to work off some money that he will end up owing me... You see, I am a hardwood flooring distributor and he is building a big house right now... I am swapping materials for some machine work... Initially, I was just going to let him do the machine work and I was going to assemble the motor but he is getting A LOT of hardwood so... I may let him put it together...
My only apprehension is that I don't know how many FE's his shop has turned out in the past... They DO have some awesome equipment there and in fact, they make, on site, their own aluminum engine blocks. Along with titanium valve springs, camshafts, and other Hi-Perf "stuff"...
