Ha Nelson is right in his reason for the taper in the casting. NOW, for ALL those that are using the cast pedestals with a high profile camshaft and ,or up-rated valve springs....THEY WILL FAIL!!!! The high lift and added spring rate is too much for the cast pedestal. I was told (and disregarded) this very thing as I built my first National engine and paid dearly for that error. If you Auto-X or run your car hard you have been warned. David Wingett '74 TR-6 E Prod. SCCA 73 TR-6 street |
