Hey, billy. Just happened to log on this morning and noticed someone had revived your thread. Really glad to see you making runs with the Mustang.
Trouble is, if North Carolina is anything like it is here in Missouri, you'll be checking out again to go fish'in. LOL. This is one of the better times of the year in Mo. Anyway, I'm glad to see the thread again, and good luck with the Mustang.....or the fish'in.... whichever. Ron

Stock Rockers? Hi Guys,
I noticed a lot of you are running stock block LQ4 6.0's with nice cams at about 600 lift and 240 duration. Are you running stock 6.0 rockers or going to aftermarket roller rockers? My 6.0 engine build book states you cant go over a 555 lift on the cam with stock rockers. But I think guys are going to 600 lift all day long. Can anyone chime in on their cam specs, valve train and rockers? Thanks guys. I have a Lq4 6.0 going into my 1988 5.0 mustang hatch with glide soon! It will be a 1/8th mile drag car.
