Default OK,,, looks like a roller!

Roller lifters,,,,, BIG money.

Not eating a canshaft during breakin,,,,,, priceless!

SO,,,, looking for a cam "kit", cam, lifters, springs, shims, retainers, double cam gear and chain (thats what it had before) and whatever else or less comes with such a "kit".

Working rpm range 2500 to 6000. Cruising rpm range of 2500 to 2800, redline 6500 (for those "missed shifts").

1964 iron Hi riser heads, 2.18 intake valves, 73 cc combustion chambers. On top will be a Ford OEM 1964 2X4 600 cfm per Holley carb (1200 cfm total), vac secondarys. I love the original aspect of the heads and 2X4 so they WILL be staying! OH, 428 crank and .017 over bore.

Having custom pistons made, so what kind of C.R. you guys think? 92 octane pump gas is all I can get here.

Kinda cool, a Club Cobra built 427 FE!
