New here.

Postby Jack60 » Tue Jul 15, 2008 9:17 pm

Just introducing myself. I have 1960 Corvette not much stock. 350 Brodix heads and intake, MSD 6AL, MSD dist. It has a solid lifter cam and I don't know what make or grind it has? I need to adjust the valves but don't know what they should be set too. I may start at .028 and go from there.
I put a 5 speed in to get overdrive, she has a 3:70 posi rear. That's about it, I'm semi-retired now so I have more time to play with my toys.

Welcome aboard, Jack...SUPER nice Vette, man! There are a bunch of guys here who will certainly discuss the valve issue with you in detail. That thing must be a real pleasure to drive. Cheers, WC1

Hi Jack,

Yeah, 26-28 is probably close if you don't know what to set them at. JMO

Here is a couple of shots of my 61 Vette.

Welcome to the board.

Welcome Jack. Nice looking ride. 8) I've heard of those Corvette's before, everyone needs to have at least one. :wink: Might even have one hanging around my place too.

Here's my old one, from days past. Not a street car though. Had/have others for that. Don't forget to wave. Image
