I'm running a holley blue with the holley regulator. I will romp on it from the carb and watch the fuel pressure but I doubt that my holley blue...
This has been something I've been fighting for months now with my setup. So here are some details. Hoping some of you guru's will chime in and see...
Hmm can of worms here. I'm sure others will chime in that are more knowlegable.... Compression is all relative to how much boost you want to...
If u can find a good deal on gt40's that would be a good swap. I found mine for around 300 with crane roller rockers. Swapped springs and seats...
If you just replaced it I would guess its either the head gasket or if that doesn't look like the problem once you pull the heads its probably...
Not good. Have you replaced the intake manifold gasket yet? If its not the intake it's definitely a head gasket. Only a few ways radiator...

Side note if you are able to screw in your air mixture screws all the way in and the car still runs you've got more issues then the pump shot diaphram
Nah not worth it. I have a roller sitting that needs built anyways. I don't mind the flat tappet stuff my power goals are pretty mild with this...
Nope there are no holes for the keeper tray deal. In 82 the 302 went to a 50 oz imbalance but didn't go roller until 85. So my block is a...
Sounds like a solid setup. I've got a roller motor on the stand rightbnow waiting for parts. I've got a mid 80s 302 block that falls in the 50oz...
Sounds good. Got my work cut out for this weekend........ Rockers... Harmonic balancer replacement Heater install Yard work !!!!!

Sounds good. What heads do you have on it now? If u havent posted your setup post it here so we can get an overview of what your working with....
