weight question

That's good. Just curious, how did you get around the tight piston to valve clearance ?? I only had .020 on intake and .045 on exhaust and which intake do u have. The 2951185 or 3698431??

We have run that close forever. NHRA has become more liberal about
incidential contact on the piston than the old days. I would rather sink the
valves a bit or thin them a bit than give up any more cam lift. PM me Sam if you need more hints than I can tell you on here.
