well engine is in...8 hours work.
did put it on Sailer's rope good for 2000KG/each ..pounds ??
but all fine.!!! No issue, a bit tricky as rope needs to go right into the Blance point/ middle of the engeine, did took us some time to blance the BIG Block..
Ok NOW..clearance Intake/Carb to engine cover:
1) will mill the Edelbrok Performer RPM down ON the LOW side for about 6 mm leaving 4 mm as rest. The upper side as intake has thsi angel hast to go down app 15 mm (0.6 ich ). This leaves anough depth/material in intake for the carb screws..(a bit of drilling and taping extra on the higher side)
2) What can I do on the INTAKE filter hights?????
have today a normal Holley 600..useed (might replace it
BUT can the intake Filter beeen reduced by OTHER Models? I mean to total hight!!! as the Filter on the inner side to fit the Holley is obvioulsy bend in..!!
Any experience ?!!!??
(sure worst case I will bend the engine cover grid, and add adequate Aluminium spacers to have it look top class...).
