\"Clevor\" Parts

It's the CHI intake for those heads with a Dominator flange on it.

Here it is with the lift plate on that I made earlier today. Of course they don't tell you that the lift plates you buy from summit don't fit dominator flanges...



The valve covers turned out very nicely. The flanges seem very sturdy so we'll see how they seal up when it gets running.

Hey just a thought, if that intake is porse, you might consider powder coating while it's apart. Tough to keep those clean. With powder coating everything wipes right off! looking good man!

I blew a piston ring in the 351w at the track so I pulled the heads, intake and exhaust. I test fit my Cleveland heads and Track Boss intake on the block. I need to shave some of the shock towers to clear the exhaust. I need better lighting in my garage as well. I have slowly been collecting all the little bits and pieces needed for the 408w build. I need a few more parts but I can start the build up now. Looks like this combo is getting popular.

Another guy trying to get all his ducks in a row for a clevor.

I have been exploring this route for about 3 years now.

I'm curious if anybody knows about pushrod length. I do need the info with what lifters are used aswell because that makes a difference.

Thanks!

393Clevor used 8.9"/9.0" with flat tappet. I'm using hydraulic roller lifters with 8.5" push rods. I think you should measure for yourself to make sure. I actually could have gone with stock 351c push rods 8.492". To be honest, I did order 8.9/9.0 push rods, back order, thinking I'd take a short cut and go off 393Clevor's specs. I cancelled it just in time to not get charged.

I work during the day and get time at night to play with the toys, sorry for the dark pics. I'll take better ones during the weekend.

shaved my shock towers

clearance for the T56, still need to massage a few spots.

Roller 408Clevor, 2004 Viper T56, custom adapters

It fits, but I didn't make enough clearance for the #3 spark plug. I'll have to fix that.

Rick,

I'm sure you are having flashbacks. The most redeeming part was when I mated the tranny to the engine two days ago. I made my own tranny/bellhousing adapter and pilot bearing/bushing adapter. I wasn't sure if my measuring and tolerances would be tight. And, without a clutch alignment tool I was planning for fighting against the pressure plate to get the disc lined up. The darn thing slipped in. I got the disc centered by holding it by had and sequence tightening the pressure plate. Yes, I am very excited. Ordering the driveshaft tomorrow, and maybe a parts run to JEGS. I'll be back with progress.

Hi, I have not been on this board for quite awhile and it is good to see that there are still Clevors being built.

I have a 408 Clevor that I bought off of Ebay a couple years ago.

It is being rebuilt at this time. Way too many R's with the wrong gears at the track going around for too many laps! It will need a new crank and a few rods and it should be ok.

Anyways, I am losing the aluminum Track Boss intake that I had borrowed and am trying to find out what is available now for Clevors.

The engine came with one of the original cast Track Boss intakes when I bought it but I want to find an aluminum intake.

I heard that Parker was making a run of intakes. I had also heard that Edelbrock was going to be coming out with a Clevor intake, any word on this?

Any ideas on intakes?

Thanks!
