Roadkill Garage Cleveland Build? (Jeep Comando propulsion....)

If you mean Roadkill Garage, they build a stroker "Clevo" in Season 3, Episode 32

Piney,

Yup, that was the one!

Scrounged more info......

406 Stroker

TrickFlow Heads TFS-SBF-?Y

TrickFlow Single plane intake

Eagle Rods  CRS-6000-BS

Springs-#9385  Ed Iskandarian

Roller Lifters- CompCams

End result was:    658HP @7400        551ft-lbs torque @ 5400rpms.

While the heads were going on, they checked for valve clearance and had tons.......could go with a larger cam....  BUT, I have to ask, if they have over headed this, and under cammed it...... how would this combo work with a std set of 351-4V heads, or even a set of Aussie 2V heads? Port flow could give better idea. Knowing cam specs would definitely help!   Might need to pull timing back a bit to compensate for trapped heat in the cast iron.....for day to day driving?

Cheers!

Those Comp Cams roller lifters won’t last long at the spring pressures required to control the valves at 7,400 RPM. For a street motor that you want to last for a long time, I’d lower the rev limit to 6,500 and spring pressures accordingly.

David,

All pieces of the puzzle aren't out of the box here yet!!!   Would love to see the dyno curves, see what's going on at 6500, which IS WAY more reasonable on the street.   I was hoping to see an Engine Masters episode that would accompany this engine.....but nothing to be found yet.....

Cheers!

He mentions some cam specs... Don´t know if I got it right...

Comp Cams solid roller

252/260 @ .50

659 lift

108 deg lobe sep

Huh...... I guess I missed it twice! Good catch!  Hafta go back and give it another listen.  I was thinking that they used solids on a hydraulic cam, but that is probably another episode.....

Not sure of the TrickFlow valve sizes, but if they are even 2V sized, that's still alotta surface area, and I would think that a cam more like .600ish lift would still give some big performance up to 6500 and more longevity.  Maybe some behives to lighten the load also!  Nothing like cubic dollars!

Need to hit Brule up and see if he has dyno charts!!

Cheers!
