Remember to order over size pistons to match your bore.

Make sure you run head studs instead of bolts and the high dollar felpro head gasket. It's better than having to put it back together later trust me.

I would have oversize valves put in and spring stiffeners also installed rage a 100 thousandsths taking off we run 2brl intakes and 1brl carbs 2 brls are notorious for screwing up

Roller cam and rocker arms out of a 8 plug head work great

Looking at buying a 2.3 that is built for mod 4 racing. In general would one of these motor work good in a derby? I don't know anything for specs on the motor off hand except that it has a fresh head, isky racing cam and its converted with new solid lifters.
