Re: Easiest way to lay rocker

Ball valves or shrader valves thats the simplest ways but if your going to bag it it wouldbe just as easy to get it overwith and do electric valves and just have a couple switches around verses valves next to the seat. As far as bags there are different kinds for different apps, our trucks would use 2600's, i have contitechs, some guys use firestones or slams with the internal bumpstops, just depends how much you are wanting to spend as far as putting airride on one.

This is basically the same set-up used on N2Billets 'red' truck.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
