I posted after I dynoed with changing the rear to the 9" and 4.30's and doing an EWP. I did have the stock 10 bolt in there before then.

Well, since I milled the heads/had Tony port the intake, I have been going to the dyno after each mod. I think it is really cool to be able to see what your money is doing

Between the clutch, headers, and now this, I have gained 31 hp and 24 ft-lbs in the last month. Getting the right parts to work together is key (Thankfully, Tony helped guide me through these things and opened my mind to things I never thought of).

good luck selling the house

FWIW, on my AFR heads I had to use the washer to get the right valve wipe and then had to order longer pushrods (by 0.050") to get the proper preload back.

No problem guys, I wanted to see this kind of stuff myself and figured since no one else had it, I might as well do it haha

I did not modify the valve covers at all. I also ran them for some time and pulled the covers to check for wear, and saw nothing on the driver side (didn't want to fool with the passenger side lol).

So these are a straight bolt in; no shimming required? Curious to know the weight as well.

those gains aren't too impressive, must be through an auto and a 9inch.

I don't suppose there's any chance that someone could guess if I needed to order pushrods in a length other then stock?

I have the TSP stage 1 ported LS6 heads with stock-sized manley valves and hardened stock-length pushrods. I'm running the .660 lift PRC dual springs if that matters at all
