Edelbrock Parts and Info Needed
By Ian Dobson - 01/06/2004 2:32:20 AM; IP 24.84.238.236
So I just received all my performer RPM stuff for my 428, cam, heads and intake. Now I have more questions than answers after reading through this forum :) the main use is to replace my 390 4speed in a 69 mustang for mainly street/strip use. car runs 13.2 now at 102 but I'd like it a little quicker if you know what I mean.

1. the RPM cam is .572 lift, I bought adjustable rocker arms, but do I order stock length pushrods?

2. I read a few places that I need rocker shaft end stands, where can I get them?

3. running the numbers through dyno2000 I get more HP and torque if I degree the cam
-4 degrees, but edelbrock recomends installing at 0, anyone have any feedback on this?

4. who sells windage trays for RE engines, I can't find them anywhere.

5. timing chains, who makes a good one, I'd like one that I can't hear over the engine noise :)

and the last question Compression! how much is too much for the street, I don't mind having to buy 94 octane gas all the time, and when I get that figured out who makes pistons for it, All I can find is speed pro 10.5/1s and thats with a 68cc head I think.

Sorry to be so long winded, but I'm an FE idiot :)
