Thanks for the advice, not a flat tappet setup -

Comp Cams 35-426-8 Camshaft
Comp Cams 8931-16 Pro Magnum Roller Lifters
Comp Cams 928-16 Valve Springs
Ferrea F6202 1.600 x 5.060 11/32 Exhaust Valves
Ferrea F6207 2.055 x 5.060 11/32 Intake Valves

I'll run Gibbs BR right from the start, yes it will be warmed up good before I do any revving. I'll put 500 miles on it following the blykins/DAVID GAGNARD approach but will not go WOT to 5K right away, work up to it with a couple of 1/3, 1/2 and then 3/4 WOT runs. Once I get 500 miles on it, it gets an oil/filter change with more Gibbs BR and goes to Goodies Speed Shop for a chassis dyno session. After that, change over to Gibbs HR-4 or HR-3 and I should be good to go. Being all aluminum and clearances @ .0025 in a couple of cases (the rest being tighter), seems I'm on the bubble between HR-4 versus HR-3. Gibbs says HR-4 should be fine, blykins what do you think? Would also like to hear from Keithc8 who is very familiar with Gibbs oil.
