We are trying to move along on this 1500 motor and are looking at
some options that have led to some questions that exceed our
experience.

How much overbore is safe without sonic testing the block?

How much can the deck be safely cut?

Has anyone used a larger wrist pin and if so how big can
you bore the small end?

What needs to be done to use the larger earlier exhaust valve
in a b78 head

What needs to be done to use the b74 intake in the b78 head?

Is there a way to go to bushed rockers?

Is the outside oiler for the rockers a good ideal?  Any potential
for too much oil to the rockers?

Which of these ideas produce too little juice for the squeeze?

Thanks for all your great advice.
