i heard through fostang that when he ran an e- cam with 1.7 he got more lift but i fogot what he said it was...just wondering if anyone else was running the same set up..and would it fit stock hight valve covers?

Use the stated lift for the E cam w/ 1.6 rocker and divide by 1.6. Then multiply the result by 1.7- ta-da!

It is .498 with the stock 1.6 ratio rocker.it is .528 lift with a 1.7 ratio rocker.

Posted by Fostang (Member # 3752) on

depends on what kind of 1.7's
cobra kind will but will need to remove the oil fill baffle.

:
fostang what was your setup and what brand(crane/cobra) of 1.7 should i get to clear the stock hight valve covers?
Posted by Fostang (Member # 3752) on
:
It's not about the height it's about the ribbing on the aluminum valve covers.
Posted by SIDEWAYZ50 (Member # 4868) on
:
well the valve covers are pretty thin and dont have that plate inside that the stock ones have??
