You will need two boxes of comp cams part number 975-12. They are a tight fit but do fit. Will work with your stock retainers and locks.

Mineral spirits will not remove the rust, I was just stating what I use to wash the block with after machining.

Completly stock head will do 450 to 500 hp, and if that is your goal, then it is a wast of money to do so much work to make a 900hp head. If you have a big budget, do the work to the head now. If you are not made of money, then spend your budget on the block and all the other items (fuel, ECU...

If you have a chrome top ring then you will want a finish of 35 to 40 degree cross hatch with a 220 grit conventional stone ( or 325 if a diamond stone). Start with normal load on the hone machine to .001 of final size. Then reduce the load to 50% untill .0002 of final size, then reduce to...

About 250.00 for a single crank. Less per crank if more are done at the same time. We can fit about 4 cranks in at a time. Send me your crank if you want it done. I have pics all over SM of cranks that have been salt bath nitrided. Once a crank is hard chromed, there is no salt bath nitriding...

I install the BC valves, springs and retainers all the time and have no problems with any of the BC Valve train. However, a dual spring setup (like the one Ferrera sells) is much safer for a big cam higher redline motor. Don't want to be breaking a spring on a single set up.

Have a shop vac sucking on the bore as you use the debur tool. It helps

Mineral Spirits in a tank washer is what I use to clean a block after machine work is finished. Then a anti rust coating that works with the time frame before the block will be assembled and used. A shop should only charge 30 to 50 dollars to wash the block after machining, so not much to save...

Van - Salt bath nitride will make the journals slicker and make the crank much more durable. And it does not wear off. Not that the stock crank is weak.

Send the block to a different machinist. We do the head and block on the same machine with no problems.

Does not look that bad to me. Maybe .0020 to .0025 on the CBN.

A 1.2 hks is 86mm bore size and will not affect your compression ratio very much at all. Not much to worry about on a near stock motor build. You would be fine with a 1.2 if not much material is removed from the block and head. You can call me at 330-541-1122 10am to 5pm weekdays if you need a...

You will make zero power without your cams installed:icon_bigg

John Force does not shift any gears.:icon_bigg

Nothing wrong with ACL either.

You will have that sometimes and twice on Sunday so they say! We are all good!

Also, what kind of climate did the motor sit in? Climate control? Or did it sit in a garage that had seasonal weather and temp. swings. The rods or clylinder walls could have a orange powder look to them from air born moisture.

In your area, you need to PM "needsnewtires" He will be able to help you out. If he has the time that is. If he cannot, then you re welcome to make the trip up north to me. It is about a 200 mile drive one way.

As many of you may have heard, Clevite was purchased by Mahle a short while back. Since the change, the only real difference in our 7m bearings is the main bearings. All 7m bearings are actually NDC bearings reboxed. The new clevite bearings are still NDC bearings and still bear the NDC stamp...

I am not sure about your argument here. I started from the begining saying that for a 500hp street car 7m the BC cams are fine and dandy. And that I have no problems with them. You are arguing against something I had agreed on from the begining. Now of course when I talk of lift sizes in the...
