You boys are doing a fine job.

hey mark you build alot of dirt track motors right? Do you care to tell what going from the .842 small block lifter to the .904 mopar lifter does for a engine and what the effect of going from a larger diameter to a smaller diameter does?

Well put. Wi50 has posted some info in the past that a special someone was unable to digest causeing weeks of argument and a $200 offer to see the part.

Lookinf foreward to see more pictures and keep up the great work.

The lifters are not keyed, but held in place by another method.  The whole trick is finding a lifter of correct useable length and haveing the base circle of the cam keep it in the correct operating zone.  It's quite simple once you see it.  I should get time to finish it shortly and then I'll show a few pictures.

I got the liners installed in the block, the billet cam blank made, and have been working on a rev kit to hold roller lifters in place but have been too busy with other projects to do much on this allis engine for a while.  

Prince Vallium to the rescue please! It looks like great work to me, you boys need to settle down a little, remember, we all love Allis or we wouldnt be on this site. Lets take it easy on each other, just an idea, please dont jump down my throat, Trev.

Why not.  Young Blood has won 5 NTPA championships in a row with a 426 in a class that probably allows over 600.  But what do I know...I need to get a life:)

Are you really that stupid or are you acting stupid?  Either way go and read the first post in this thread and you would understand that WI is also building a superstock as he makes mention of it and not knowing if he will have time to finish this Allis engine.

Don't worry Aaron, a kicked dog is the one that barks.

Well, then...won't you be happy when this POS he's building sucks all the sleeves into the crankcase and consumes his didn't really make it on his own crank.  I swear, you guys need to go out back and settle this.  I like reading about people who have the time, money, and talent to do stuff like this.  That goes for WI50's builds and the one you worked on the last year or so.  If every puller had the same thing it'd be like IROC in NASCAR.  It's getting old watching people with talent, money, and time have their work shot down by others.

P.S.  Keep posting what you are accomplishing...both of you.

Ml's eyes are clouded by jelousy. Again.   I see a step around the top also and what looks like the top counterbore, barrel, bottom counterbore and relief on what hangs in the crankcase. 

I dont see a square step to keep the sleeve from pulling through the bottom
