I’ve got the factory gauge, so take it for what it’s worth, but it shows 60 psi (+\- 10). However, it’s a new manufacture Melling pump, so not really a good comparison.

Yessir. I spoke with the KRE folks a year or so ago (pre-COVID) and they said it was no big deal to do the smaller intake valve. Not sure what their stance is nowadays.

Yep. For the street. No interest in Edelbrock. For clarity’s sake, these would be 65cc with 2.02-ish intake valves and 1.66 exhaust.

It may come down to that, but I'm hopeful the new set of lifters will give me a better baseline.

Well, I finally got the lifters swapped out. Three of them were "jammed" in the top position, essentially becoming solid lifters (no spring movement whatsoever). The cam appeared to be in good...

I think I know the answer, but wanted to get a little more input. With regards to a 1965-66 389 block, can you run later model small valve heads without any modifications? I'm thinking Nos. 11, 15,...
