what type of ROCKER ARM assembly should i use ? is STOCK shafts and arms fine ?  :shruggy:


Sure, the stock stuff will work great.  :2thumbs:

No need for an adjustable valvetrain with that VooDoo cam.  ;)



Ron

man RON are you fast on the reply  :2thumbs: so i dont  need to use the "DUCK TAIL " rockers ? just regular old rocker arms ?

let me know what you think when you get a chance .

thanks RANDY :2thumbs:



Randy,

Stock rockers/shafts are fine as long as they are not showing excessive wear.


I'm gonna save you some money....hope you don't mind  ;)


Pushrods : http://chucker54.stores.yahoo.net/hy440chmo.html

Valve springs : http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?autofilter=1&part=CCA%2D911%2D16&N=700+115&autoview=sku


* The cam kit is $195 at summit so it's more expensive than your e-bay link....but check on shipping to compare the difference.


The Mancini 5/16 pushrods are heavy wall and chrome moly....ideal for your setup. The Comp Magnum timing sets are excellent quality and those chains hold their tension as good as any i've seen out there and better than most. The Comp 911 valvespring will drop right onto your heads with no mods, fit your retainers like a glove and work perfectly with that VooDoo grind.
