Rob, Thanks for everything. I'm going to give the head guy a call, but I think i'll end up going w/ the stock length. I'll let you know how I make out. ~Jamie

Perfect! Thanks so much. I wish you were here as well, you really know your stuff! This is all very new to me. Now the seller of the heads said i should go .100 - .150 longer then stock push rods. Do I need to go a tad longer then the CRN-44621-16 rods or did you factor that in?

Hi Rob, Thanks you so much for the response. This is quite helpful!! Here is the exact cam that I have. It is a flat tappet cam... http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?part=EDL%2D7182&autoview=sku Let me know what you think! Thanks again!

Hey Guys, As some of you know I'm in the process of building up a 351w to toss in my 68. This is my first time ever taking an engine this far apart and building it back up. Everything has been pretty smooth but I'm at a point where I need some help. First off, I went with an Edelbrock...

Jeff, Do I see a little bit of red sox nation all the way out in CA hanging in your garage there?? ;-)

my fav tool = 1/2" drive breaker bar.

Jeff, Thanks, this is very helpful. I will be sure to check for this when I install it next weekend. ~Jamie

Ah perfect, that makes sense. I will be running an electric fuel pump so i will just purchase a block off plate! Thanks Jeff!!

Hey Guys, As some of you know I am in the process of rebuilding a 351w to put in my 68. The block that I have is dated 1984. I just recently purchased a new water pump that states it was for a 79-85. I get the pump and it bolts up ok but the water ports do not match up to the timing cover...

Nice! About 7 years ago (I was 16 at the time), I sent a question in to Dream Car Garage (show on the speed channel). 10 months later I'm half asleep on my couch watching TV and I hear them reading off my question with some expert they brought in to answer it. Needless to say the question I...

David, Thank you, if you have pictures of the bars would be great! What brand headers did you end up going with to get them to fit on your 351? ~Jamie

Rob and David, I appreciate all the help. I think you have answered all of my questions and I have great direction now on where i want to take this build. I hoping to have this complete by the spring so i will be sure to post some updates w/ the progress and perhaps a dyno. Thanks again, ~Jamie

Thanks Dave, I will look into the holley carbs. I was kinda partial to sticking w/ edelbrock due to satisfaction in the past, and keeping consitancy w/ the rest of the parts on the motor (ie: intake, cam, etc..) but since i'm not going to be going w/ edelbrock heads may as well weigh out my...

Ok great, thats pretty much what i thought. As for cam, i have not picked it up yet, but i am planning on getting the Performer RPM cam and lifter kit. So i guess if all goes at plans i will end up with these 190cc heads, performer rpm intake, performer rpm cam, and undecided on carb at this...

I just noticed this guy offers 3 different ones. All the specs seem the same except for one is 175cc intake runners, one 190cc intake runners, and the other 210cc. What do you think is ideal here?

Great, this is great info to know. Thank you once again. ps, i just realized the link was broken, its fixed now.

Hey Guys, I've been doing a bunch of research and I'm back with another question. First off I've been watching these heads, I'm not sure if anyone has any experience with these but they seem to be as close to "affordable" as i can find. Anyway i was interested in matching these up with an...

Dave and Rob, thanks for all of the advice. This is very helpful. Rob, for a little more detail, i'm building the 351w to mate up w/ a T5 tranny which will then go in my 68 coupe (which i later plan on making into a gt/cs clone out of). It's not a drag car or a daily driver, just a nice...

The intake is a 12 bolt. As for the heads i'm not positive what they are, i have yet to find a casting number (they were a rusty mess). The engine actually came out of a 1995 pickup truck. The guy said he purchased it as a rebuilt motor 4 or 5 years ago (it was used in a snow plow truck which...

Hey Guys, I'm in the process of rebuilding a 351w and I'm looking to see what my best option for heads are. I'd like to beef up the proformance a bit, but i'm not looking for extreme power. I'm planning on putting a mild cam and a 4v edelbrock 600cfm carb. The block is dated as a 1984 block...
