Shaft rockers need to be set up for the application for the geometry to be correct. For lower lifts, the valve stem needs to be below the top side of the shaft and for higher lifts, the valve stem needs to be above the shaft. The correct height is measure by a dial gauge and a supplied stand height gauge and adjusted by shims under the shaft rocker rail.
Once the correct shim thickness is determined, the shaft stands can be bolted down and the rockers installed.
Next, the cam is slid into place. We had WPC treated the camshaft for less friction and longer life.
The rear cam thrust plate is put into place next.
The front cam thrust plate is installed.
Next, the timing gear and chain are installed.

Want to purchase 2010 SS Camaro Automatic
Would the motor in this vehicle be rebuilt to the specs in this video or would you place a new motor of your specs into the vehicle?
VIN 2G1FK1EJ7A9207576
Car is listed local to you on Carvana
We would teardown and inspect the engine to make sure it would be suitable for a rebuild.
Can you tell us what the cam specs are?
256 degrees of duration at 0.050″ lift on the intake and 273 degrees duration on the exhaust. The lift is 0.712″ on the intake and 0.688″ on the exhaust side. The lobe centers are 107 degrees on the intake and 115 degrees on the exhaust with a 111-degree lobe separation angle
Do yall offer engine building services i collapsed a lifter in my engine and an fixing to just go ahead and rebuild it to these specs.
Yes but this engine isn’t cheap.
Is it possible to get a complete parts list for this build?
What is the cost to build 650hp LS3
something like 16 to 22k depending on if you supply a useable core engine or not.
For a hydraulic lifter engine similar to this. Used in circuit racing, what would you recommend for cam size , lift etc. LSA ?? It will be a 4.010 bore 4 inch stroker
I don’t recommend hydraulic lifters for racing.
