    Ported heads and bigger valves

    Wagler's big money engines that use stock blocks are filled, sleeved, and deck plated. Strengthens block but also allows for quick piston replacement. In these applications the thought is the piston is now your weakest point but the couple guys I know haven't hurt pistons, they've broken...

    Ported heads and bigger valves

    Fill the block and put a set of solid iron heads on it. Leave the bore as small as you can. Done deal. [emoji869] Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

    LMM: Trucks killing me any help is appreciated

    I think that is a fair price for complete head gasket job. I would not reinstall without a machine shop pressure checking them and decking them, though. If his quote does not include that, then it may get too high. Most machine shops are expensive for that work. Sent from my SM-G960U using...

    Only trouble we've had with the LT so far is a bad variable oil pump, and a leaking hi pressure fuel pump. Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

    Half tons have afm. Their complex lifters are notorious for going bad, causing misfiring. But they dont typically eat cams in that scenario Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

    LB7 Pushrods

    This^. If you have to, merchant's are the best bang for your buck without getting heavier than needed. We used them at 16xxhp and ran down the track 5500 rpm. Big engine builders will recommend .145 wall pushrods for extreme app's but .083 served us well time after time. Years ago, we had...

    ISO Cam - L96 6.0L

    I checked all of them and they are still great shape. Holds the lifters as intended. The two I've done were both like this one. No evidence of the lifter turning sideways or roller frozen. But yet the cam lobe wore off.. .. Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk
