RE: if you're running edelbrock heads....beware..... By Art - 03/06/2002 8:20:34 PM; IP 204.186.172.14 I called Edelbrock today on this issue and the other one of the shims wearing thin and causing the valve springs to wear into the head. On the oil issue; they said as long as you use the Edelbrock head bolts you will not have an oiling problem. And you could use either H.P. or H.V. oil pumps with these heads. Second issue; he said they have no record of complaints about the shims wearing away and causing any damage,(BUT!!) they have been installing spring cups on there heads ,but he couldn't tell when they started doing this. I think they did have a few complaints but won't admit to them. He also said they prefer you use studs to hold the rocker assembly rather than bolts due to bottoming out and stripping out the head. Any thoughts are appreciated , before I bolt my #6006 heads on my .030 over 428!!

This thread, so far...
