Thank you guys. All great answers. Thank you. Not to whine to anyone, but I paid an exorbitant amount of money for what I thought was gonna be a pretty straight forward job to the local speed shop pro's where I live! They did not deliver. So I'm having to redo a lot myself. I'm getting old, but I'm better than those guys. Converted to Holley Sniper EFI, New tank w/in tank pump, new fuel system, yada yada.
First dilemma, built engine with roller cam, needed taller valve covers so instead used 1" billet spacers so I could use my factory valve covers, they barley clear the vacuum booster. So, I cant lift the trans tailshaft high enough to achieve the much needed 3 degree slope.
It needs lower/compact roller rockers to get rid of the 1" spacers and of course probably will need different length pushrods. Hoping to avoid that, but probably can't. Engine builder told me to buy only steel roller rockers, so I sourced them from Butler. Didn't know they were that tall. Aluminum Scorpions and others are much more compact...my bad.
Just for the heck of it, my car sits about an inch too low in the rear. considered raising it at the suspension, but still don't think I'll gain that much if I did.
Thanks for all of your help, ideas and comments.
