oil mods 428
By doc - 01/11/2001 10:04:10 PM; IP 38.30.137.150
I recently rebuilt a 66'428plain. I did all the mods I"ve read about exept restricting the oil at the heads.I don"t race,but I do stomp it to the floor on occaision!!! I"ve heard only mecanical lifter setups need this.Any input on this subject would really help! My vehicle is a1970 f-250 camper special ranger (originally 360 2barrel) C-6.The 428 came from a 66 galaxy.I"m running 270H-10 magnum Comp cam.(not too sure of my choice any imput welcome) block is 40 over,crank is a 1U turned 20 under .I lined up the mains,drilled the 7/16th hole ,cleaned up the drain holes in the back of the lifter valley.I used sealed power cast pistons(I"m on a budget!).My engine building friend talked me out of moly rings,kicking myself now.S/P HV pump,ht2083 lifters,erson adj. rockers and springs,comp cam push rods,performer non- RPM manifold (don't tell ED) I bought it for the the 360 and reused it.We rebuilt the 7-liter's autolight 4100,but considering other options(any suggestions)Also a crane xr-700 ignition to replace the points,mallory cap,taylor wires,stock truck exhaust manifolds for now and finally dual exh.This motor has 1500 miles on it,I"m running pensoil 10/40 (considering synthetic). Enjoying my FE and its torque!!! DOC
