@@cbobmonster from what I have seen others do, yes. Only reason I went to adjustable roller rockers was because I went to a solid cam.

@@hpbunker awesome thanks yeah I’m building a 360 for my D10 and those heads look mighty appealing come black Friday lol

@@drewdudy thanks! It's a pretty cool ride, but so far hasnt been driven this year :(

@@hpbunker you're welcome. I hate to hear that about your car. Good luck getting her back on the road!

@@smilsmff I had lots of shims left from one of my old engines that used Hughes rockers, but these needed a LOT of shim. All figured out now though

@@rollthers3157 I have the keys under the top right now, and a ton of crap on the top, so I can't lift it to check. But judging by the lock slot, its yor standard toolbox style keys if that makes sense?

@@hpbunker Yeah, a standard flat key. Thanks.

@@paulszafranski7502 thanks! Looked for a long time to find one

Definitely one way to do it. But I didn't want to have change hardware, plus I have not had good luck with beehives in the past and feel more comfortable with a double spring setup.

Hey, can you tell me why? I'd rather solve it now before trying to get into it. I'm new to the Holley efi stuff as I mentioned in the video.

it was $600 on sale at HD for a long time. i picked one up at that price. i unfortunately told the delivery guys to put the movable casters on the wrong side, and not it's too heavy for me to fix it alone lol. dont make my mistake!

Nope, custom Comp hydraulic roller with XE lobes

As far as I am aware they don't advertise any, but I believe on many benches they are somewhere in the 250cfm range on the intake, and i dont recall the exhaust peak now. But nonetheless, to bolt on as a replacement for stock factory iron, they are definitely going to provide a felt difference in power. Thanks for the comment and view!

@@hpbunker Two fiddy max intake CFM, ok that will help make some power. Posting a video with flow numbers of those heads should help you get lots of views. Do a short saying what the heads are and ask if anyone ever wondered how much they flow. Then say to subscribe to find out. Put the video out in a week or so or after the short gets a bunch of views. You might be able to find someone else's video with that info you could splice the flow numbers into your video? If not you might have to find a local shop with a flow bench to have your head tested? In the video with the numbers, list the parts and other specs your engine will have and ask people to write down how much HP your engine will have in the comments. This should help your channel grow quicker because people are interacting with you. Maybe by the time you have the engine assembled you will be monetized to have it dynoed? Make sure when you remind people to subscribe to also tell the to share so you can get to where you can pay for stuff like dyno testing. Good luck, with your channel, subscribed.😎👍

@@itseithergonnaworkoritaint7852 thanks for the tips and subscribing!

@@hpbunker You're welcome, just a couple ideas I was going to use with my channel before my back was broken. Not paralyzed but still to much pain to play in the garage.😎👍

Hi Ed, thanks for the kind words and for subscribing. I think I've seen you on Just Mopar Joes channel? Looking forward to seeing what you think of the speedmaster heads from an experienced machinist perspective. Subscribed as well!

@@hpbunker Thank you for the subscription. Have a good evening.

Thank you for the comment and appreciation. I was trying to be transparent here. I will say this, in no way am I a huge fan of overseas production, nor am I a hater of it. I understand it as a direct function of free market capitalism, and that in any industry, constant R&D and product enhancement in either performance or price is the only way to either stay on top or be an industry leader...Therefore, it doesn't make me mad as it does for some others that a company like Speedmaster exists, and where or how the products are produced. I think as the buyer, one needs to make as informed a decision as possible for themselves, and decide what is important for them when spending their money. I really just wanted to provide a short, up close lens on these heads and first impressions for those who are considering them or have them to use and are maybe on the fence. Keeping all of that in mind, and not thinking these are going to be on par with far nicer cylinder head offerings for the LA platform, will hopefully help those watching in making decisions for their own situation.

@hpbunker thanks for understanding my reply. I also respect your opinion and what your intentions were of the heads. When I started in parts 40 years ago, Japan and even Taiwan were starting to make cheaper versions of mostly decorative parts for hot rods. Valve covers, dress up kits, etc. Sometimes, build specs were sketchy, but as the years went by, the quality became first rate. Many a American company used them for budget parts. Then, for their class a and b parts. It was always going to be a Chinese industrial boom to take advantage of cheap labor and materials. The same manufacturers that bought from Taiwan and Japan now use Chinese products. I remember when manufacturers started using Chinese rotors and drums; we were assured the product was as good as American made items, because we had American inspectors watching over the production lines. It was true, however when we demanded even lower costs, that also went away. Slowly I learned of the geopolitical implications of manufacturing of everything we buy. We were taught in school that many countries have high unemployment and the lack of work,creates friction within countries with weak governments. Even today, there is so much unrest because the corruption and lack of work, among the bottom classes. Since most of the bigger companies sub out materials and labor, we can never be sure of what or where our raw materials come from. So many cry out about imports, but yet, still vote with their dollars on imported products. Fact is, building performance cars is run off discretionary income, so rightly so, prices can drive people to buy imports. Yes, we can agree, it's not a perfect world, but if you want champagne parts at diet coke prices, choose wisely and vote with your dollars

What? 😨

I filmed this about a week before that valve body stuff all surfaced, and really debated if I should post it as I considered I would get flack from those enraged by the valve body incident. Figured I would post it anyways, more to provide info to those who maybe like me bought these on a budget, or maybe bought a used engine with them, or maybe are just curious about the products. In no way am I condoning how people should or shouldn't feel about Speedmaster products, and like I mentioned, I would never have purchased these even a few years ago...but I did hear a lot of good about these heads in specific, and when weighing my options vs. budget, they seemed to be a good choice. Time will tell if they are or not. Thanks for the comment and view.

I was going to buy those rocker arms.....but after the broader performance video, I am not buying speedmaster stuff

What you are saying sounds very familiar to me, and is why I mentioned in the video, 5 years ago I would have never bought these. But I see countless people discuss how good the actual castings are (at least with these heads specifically) compared to even some of the comparable American brands, so it was somewhat what led me to purchasing a set. This is a very low buck build, and time will tell how they hold up, but worst comes to worst its not a high dollar short block, so if its hurt hopefully it wouldn't be bad. Now I'm gonna knock on some wood and hope I didn't jinx myself. Thanks for the comment and view.

I appreciate the input. I filmed this video a few weeks ago but only just got around to posting it. The heads are currently getting inspected by a cylinder head guru who specializes in Mopar heads, just for peace of mind. This whole build is super budget, and I'm sure these will make more power then factory iron while saving some weight in the process. Maybe in a future iteration for this engine they will come off for some port work to help maximize them. Thanks for the comment and the view.

I would say even if its higher mileage, if its been maintained, they are definitely a reliable option. I'd say more reliable than any twin cam or M8, so long as you arent trying to squeeze crazy power out of one- that's where their weakness lies, and where you're better off with something like a complete s&s engine, or a newer platform that already makes more power and accepts more. But the evo has that legendary idle and they just keep running!

Im gonna make a video on this as I have had a few guys ask about what it takes.

All the wagons came factory with rear anti sway bar. Im looking to remove the iso clamp system though, and when I do not sure what I will do about sway bar mounts.

Tell me about it. I can't remember the last time I was sick for so damn long.

Its an Aspen SE model if that matters in regards to the trim. I dont think the 360 is original to the car, but that is whats getting built for it. Check out my other videos, engine is getting the cam and top end soon!

The box is great and suits my needs perfectly because of the size of my garage and really needing a box that doubled as a workbench. But if my garage was bigger and I had room for actual workbenches, I would have spent the extra on the HF box. But if you need a workspace that is substantial (especially depth wise) then this box ALL day. It is good quality all around.

Thank you for the reply. I just picked one up at a good price. Looks like they might be discontinuing this box

@@hpbunkerwhere did you get your matching side mounted baskets?

​@@angelad75all of the stuff mounted on the side, like the glove holder, power tool holder, and tray and chemical holder are all from Harbor Freight.

@@hpbunker thank you. Are you able to provide links? Sorry to ask. I will try and see if I can find them. I just bought this exact tool chest. Oh and are they magnetic or did you bolt them on I am also seeking to see if there is a way to convert the casters to leveling legs. Not sure if you know if this is possible on this cabinet. If you do please share how. lol.

I hear ya. Mine was unintentionally mild really, as I choked the combo big time with lower compression and an oldddd bigger cam with lazy ramps. Engine only cranked 165psi, and speaking with some sbm head gurus i was leaving 60-70hp on the table with cam and compression. So I can definitely say, dont skimp on your head, cam and compression if you can swing it, as it will really help. Any specific details you want, im willing to share.

I was thinking to bump my compression up to 9:5:1 or even 10. Some where I can still run pump gas and as for heads. I'm not 100% on set yet but I am looking into edelbrock heads with tti 1 5/8 headers. I'm still in the early stages of figuring out exactly the right route as right now I'm fixing things I found wrong with the car and making improvements on its drivability and reliability. But I'm curious on the nitrous system you ran. Was it just a plate?, wet kit? And did you run a system that wound ramp in the spray or was it just hit and go?

​@@AlexMartin-uq7pbIt was a wet system, NOS cheater plate kit and i ran pump 94 octane on the nitrous as well. No dedicated fuel system, just a second regulator and made sure I flowed the fuel side correctly and was safe on the tune up. Shaved more then tenth with a .63 jet in the plate and 60' footed 1.28s. If filling nitrous wasnt so expensive where I live I would have stayed with it. Hope that helps

Free horsepower!

Another option for sure! Used oven cleaner on the block to clean it before disassembling, but like being able to soak the pistons for a bit to help loosen it up, and it keeps the mess contained too👍

It was VERY close, but so far just trimming the valve cover in that area is sufficient. If I find its still an issue I may move the steering column over ever so slightly, but I'm thinking it should be okay. The outer sleave on the column i trimmed back years ago when I first put a small block in the car, so that was helpful.

I have not tried that, but I also rarely ever raise the top on it since I dont need to access whats in there very much. Not a bad idea though!

I made a "bit" for my Husky table specifically for that. It works well. I do notice that if I raise it too fast, there's a sketchy-sounding "screech" that comes from inside the machinery inside the table, so I just raise it slowly. So far, so good.

Nice combo! I really wanted to go big block with mine, but the g3 hemi stuff was intriguing and it was hard to pass up the timing of the deals, so hopefully i end up happy with my choice. Have a great year as well!

Thanks bro! Its very close now, im getting anxious! Lol

Went 6.20's with a 10:1 pump gas 408, .63 jet in a cheater plate. Was very mild but worked pretty well for what it was. New combo now though, uploading a video today about it, check it out!

Thanks man, happy to finally have one! Hoping the f body content inspires others to build these sometimes forgotten Mopars. Got updates on my a body coming soon too

@hpbunker A body, too?! I'm gonna check it out. This is definitely my kinda channel! I need to do some updates on my A and F body's!

@@greazedlightninggarage6768 sounds good man im trying to get content out more regularly so yea check it out! I just realized back when I was looking for content on wagons I came across your channel with both of your f bodies idling in the driveway👍

I don't know what that means lol

I hear ya, insurance is definitely a real thing. Im lucky, my shop is around 400 square feet and insulated, so even when it is -20 degrees celcius outside, the shop is warm enough to work after 45 mins of the stove running. The wood I have to use is already clean and split, so really no mess. For me, the very dry and warm heat is totally worth it :)
