    10 bolt BAE fuel heads, blue stands, stage V intakes, dual taper pushrods. Intake pushrods rubbing the liners.
    Question: will the manton tool steel straight 3/8 pushrods hold up to a whipple? Is it possible to bore the holes out and put larger liners where the intake pushrods go thru?
    Need to fix before liners get too thin. Putting chips in the oil filter.
    Any thoughts?
    I have more money in them than they are worth.

    I would give Manton a call they are great people to talk to..and you will learn so much from them..I had the same problem and they took care of it, I think my spare motor used the bob newberry push rods and solved the problem..Dave
