Default Converting 351W Non Roller to Roller lifters
Hey all
Has anyone had any experience with converting an older non roller cam block to a roller cam?
As I read about it, it appears that using production roller lifters is possible but the lifter bore needs to be ground flat for the dog bone and the center spider needs to be mounted. Sounds OK but then a small base circle cam has to be used. Any issues there?
How about linked after market roller lifters? More expensive but standard cams fit.
Thoughts or experience?
Larry
