Talking

Wasn't intending to envoke military service in a thread, I don't judge people on those grounds, that was the only reason I was in Jersey. It was just a reference for why I was there. I have no arguments about whether one roller is better than another, there are many parts that have one manufacturer producing a better quality part, it's a by-product of a free market. I'll wait for the longevity report at 10,000 miles,like I said. I've run Hilborn injection on the street,while it was fun (a lot of things I thought were fun when I was younger,I don't now), I would never tell anyone I thought it was a good street system. Also fenderwell headers,tilt front end,tunnel ram and a straight axle ('57 Chevy), with 4.88 gears.It ,too, was a blast, I wouldn't suggest to anyone that it was good street set-up. I might build one for a customer, finished a Blown BB '57 Chevy recently, but I do let the customer know what experiences they can expect from a set-up like that.I have no beef with you, how can I, we don't know each other. Once again, all I was doing was expressing that I don't believe that a radical solid roller cam is a good long term street cam. If you're not going radical then the roller is wasted money. I'm glad you like your cam, it's your car, great. Just let me know at 10,000 how it is.
