Trying to assemble a Stage II short block.
3.600 BMP crank
6.50 Carrilo rods
Roller cam
If I install the cam straight up, ever thing clears
Degreeing in the cam, it looks like it needs to be advanced 4 degrees. When I set it up advanced, # 2 rod hits the lobe on the cam. I only had # 1 & 2 pistons in the block so don/t know about the others, I had heard only one of the front ones will hit
How much clearance do I need ( min. ) between rod and cam.
If I have to grind for clearance, is my balance out the window?
Thanks
