If you shave the head down .10, do you have to get different pushrods? Wylde Bill |

Maybe, maybe not. You will have to check upon reassembly though. ![]() |

If you shave it .100" and retain a stock cam - - most likely. If you go to a higher lift cam maybe not; the adjusters will take up the extra length. High Lift cams have smaller base circles. |

I cut my head and block for .10 and reground the stock cam to a higher lift. The stock push rods were right on the money. |

I'm probably going with the Erson 270 cam to give it some more punch since the car is pretty heavy. Four doors to move. Wylde Bill |

My four door is a 330 B-body. A bit more than your A-body in sure. Wylde Bill |
