Engine Tech
Say fellow gear heads i have a problem with my BBC. Rebuilt the 750 holley and the distributor back and forth with plugs, R44, #5, i cannot get past 5400RPM without the engine acting like it has a rev limiter on it. Took it to a mechanic friend and he seems to think it is valve spring failure.
