Hey guys,
Getting ready to drop my Teksid motor off to be built and have a valvetrain question...
I have a set of the revised DC heads that I had ported and built by Fox Lake with a set of custom spec cams, PAC springs, bronze guides, oversized seats etc. I hear alot of good things about people running the GT500 followers/lash adjusters but not alot is clear as far as what is necessary to get the job done.
I obviously would need the GT500 followers. But as far as the lash adjusters...some say the whole GT500/Ford GT intake and exhaust set. Some say use the intake from one and exhaust from another...(GT500/Ford GT - 03/04). I've even seen people say stock lash adjusters and upgrade to GT500 followers only.
What is the clear answer here as far as what is necessary? I have gotten the best of the best in parts to build this motor. Power levels should reach 1,000WHP with my Gen 5 3.0L on E85.
Yes, I have used the search function. Looking for a clear answer as to what to place an order for.
Mainly looking for what I need to order, and also any changes I may need to make to oil viscosity choices in the future...
Thanks.
