Steelcomp I want to thank you for doing a great service to all the CC members. Everyone of you have built or brought an engine for either a machinist or engine builder. Steel just pointed out alot of GOOD info all should be asking before buying their next motor or having there heads done. You may have been out on the picture for a while but it seams you still are on the edge of head flow and builder latest works. Gald you came back. I am sure that KC would spend a hour talking to you about VE% flow rates, moving ports off set lifters and so on. I have one question about off set lifters, I know that most blocks are bushed but the off center push on the lifter must rub against the bore of the hole. Does it cause a wear problem. Short term racing OK No street motor is going to live that long with this configuration
? I would think a roller lifter would have an easier time than a solid or flat tappet. Rick Lake
