RE: 390 pistons

By 390 ranger - 08/11/2004 1:49:34 AM; IP 141.151.153.126

i recently put together a .60 over 390 with speed pro flat top pistons and edelbrock heads. i deck the heads to achieve 10.3 to 1. i am running the comp cams extreme energy flat tappet hydraulic xe 280. I also am using total seal gapless rings( gapless on the top ring). I have not experienced and oil problems that people associate with gapless rings. power range of cam is 2800 to 6800 I have unfortunately been unable to run it at the track. evidently the stock 1983 ranger frame cannot handle the new motors torque. slight twisting of the frame has forced me to install a cage. old motor was slightly over stock 390 turned 12.90 at 3000 pounds
