24 ultra labed 6200 max !! 26 ultra labed most of the time 5800 rpm's.. standard volvo penta 280

valves are in, rockers are on hand tight, putting the heads on the block monday to check pushrod clearence, will post more pics soon

will the valve cover tubes that the bolts go through clear the rockers, just did a motor and they did not cleatr the rockers.

i think im gonna have to get bigger valve covers. any suggestions??

ok just pulled the old engine today. it is a 2 piece rear seal 350. besides the flywheel and coupler will everything else change over to my new 1 piece seal block, such as starter, p/s pump, harmonic balancer, bell housing, etc etc?

Yessir! As long as you run the same diameter flywheel the starter will be good. Some of the older 350's had a 158 tooth ring gear which takes a different offset then the 168 tooth.
