Hi everyone,
    I'm doing some valve train work and am looking for some input on seated
pressure and open pressures for my six. I'm running a hot street cam with
1.52 roller rockers, the net lift will be .443. It is a street car but I do
push it at times (6000 rpm). I want to keep the valve train under control
without trashing the cam, which is fairly new (broken in) and I've inspected
the cam and followers and all looks good.Also , does anyone know the
thickness of an installed head gasket on a 74?
Thanks
