Default Re: Heads or Cam?

Thanks, thanks, and more thanks, the car is tested and running great. Have some good feedback for ya'll- hopefully you find it useful. ....The intake valves are 1.9 and the exhaust are 1.5 or 1.6. Any larger, like 2.1, and the pistons would more than likely require some work. Also, there is plenty of clearance from valve to piston with a b-cam. Getting a larger cam could cause problems expecially if you are going for something crazy. The guy that did the heads for me is very reputable and has put hundreds of heads with valves like mine on mustangs and with no clearance issues. Finally, don't know why we had such dire results after carefully adjusting the rockers on the first time. I can only assume that it had something to do with the lifters needing break-in. 2d time was a charm!! V/r
