Default 390 valves

dwisdom,

After my last post, I received my .060" longer push rods and installed them. Note that all pushrods did not need to be replaced.

I checked the .050" to .150" lash, with the lifters compressed, and found that I finally had all valves in speck.

I went on the "Snakes to the Lake" run last weekend, a little over 900 miles for us, and had no problems with tappet noise or noticable performance losses.

The fuel mileage was as good as always also.
