Finally figured out the process for posting videos. Whiplash cam at idle. Engine is a .030 over 440 from '77 Chrysler New Yorker, Edlebrock Performer intake, 750 with vacuum secondary. A/F mixture took a while but finally got there.

Which wiplash cam are you using and are your heads stock 452 and if so did you find a drop in valve spring that works??
 
It a Hughes Cam specifically for the low compression 440's. I used the 452 heads and stock valve springs. Link below.

Do you happen to know if your heads had the exhaust rotators on them??

I see its 518 lift did you end up with enough retainer clearance and no coil bind etc? I know they say the factory rockers arent a true 1.5 ratio....

Im asking because I am thinking about the wiplash cam you have as well.

Im also in florida and have a blue 67 mopar lol....

No rotators, have no issues at all with the rockers or valve springs. Very pleased with the cam and the folks at Hughes.

Cool, I'm useing the 452 heads also on a 440. .040 over, TRWs, .060 in the hole, no reliefs. Was wondering if you knew you piston depth.

I used a flat top piston with no reliefs....close to the stock piston pin height location. I'll have to do a little digging to give you the exact dimensions but as I recall it was deeper than .060 more like .125 (guessing).
