Here's an updated thread on the 467 project. Spent the weekend finishing the heads..final CC, and then equalize chambers. All within .3 cc's. Also got one of the 6464 1050 Dominators I got off ebay finished. They had sat for 20+ yrs. Upgrades included "soft" progressive linkage, a leaner intermediate circuit, and screw in air bleeds, not to mention a good cleaning.
All the mock up is complete on the motor, all clearances checked, and only a few corrections left to make. One is to index the guide plates. Here's a pic to show what I'm talking about.

Whoa...that's a big pic! Notice how the roller tip on the int. rocker (to the right) isn't centered over the valve tip. Not good, especially with 600# of open spring pressure. The guide plate needs to be cut and relocated, then welded back together.
Here's some before and after pics of the carb. (there's two of them)

Still have to crush the springs and check the pressures, then it's time for final assemble.

Looks good Scott. The welding of the guideplates suck but it is a necessary. Looking forward to seeing some numbers.

Not knowing ;much about guide plates, I'm curious to see what exactly you do to move the rocker over and center it on the valve. Got any pics of the finished guide plates?
I'm enjoying following the build up. Thanks for taking the time to share.

Hey Steel, have you used the econo Jesel shaft rockers? I have been using them alot and have had very good luck with them. Alot less work and alot easier for adjusting. By the time you use good studs,rockers,stud girddle,tall valve covers, etc., you are almost into a set of these! Just a thought. Neil
PS-heads look great. Looks like you do very clean work. Don't know if it is right, but it sure looks good!! :rollside: Just kiddin. Great job..
