Default Re: Schubeck Lifter Update

Street racing ?????????????
here's my "street":



I guess I have a problem, Rocket...
I will under NO CIRCUMSTANCES EVER pound a cold engine...... EVER
No, I do not drive for MILES. The above picture is taken 1 1/2 miles from my shop. I don't race against people out there. I don't take riders. I don't "show off" for the neighbours.
Simply, if acting responsibly, it's a SAFE environment to tune the car.

"Tolerances" in the lifter bore ?
I have to confess two things...
I was never made aware that lifter-to-bore clearances were required to be anything special with these things.
And, I am a low-life... 'cuz I didn't spend $8,000,000.00 to have the lifter bores in my $3000.00 409 passenger-car engine block, machined/indexed/bushed.

Already DID the sink and shave the valves !
This cam is on a 108. I may go back to 110

No, I never wiped out a cam. And with lifters like Schubecks, no one should in Stock Eliminator.

"Street race" this car ?
I don't think so !
