Single-Relief 1641 Pt.2

Clatter · Post by **Clatter** » Sat Nov 13, 2004 9:27 pm

The Single-Relief Screamer Saga continues...

E100 Cam
Single Srings
Stock Crank, so, 5000-5500RPM
Solid Shafts
Swivel Feet (Ball-Style)

Do I need:
Heavy pushrods?
Dual-Thrust cam bearings?

I do plan on driving it pretty hard...

Thanks for your help,
Steve

Stock pushrods should be enough (with HD springs and the heavier adjusters they're nearing their limit but I'd give 'em a chance, if you find you're replacing them often you could get HD ones later).
Stock timing gears? You shouldn't need dual-thrusts, but they can't hurt anything. With straight-cuts they'd just be a waste of money.

Thanks for the wisdom, Marc.
May as well put in the dual-thrusts, it's not a lot of money...
I'll just run the pushrods and see...
thanks again,
Steve

I would definetly run the dual thrust bearings for extra insurance, if you like the whine of the straight cuts throw them in also(i like them put them in my last two motors)Hey what kind of compression ratio are you running
