dlampe.....thanks....
I think I'd be better off to save the $400 and gain the reliability and longevity of a flat tappet cam.....all I"m doing is street stuff....
I was really hoping to see 500hp out of this engine though.....I was hoping a good cam would get me there. Maybe I'll have KC massage the heads a little bit.
I'm showing 486 with a Comp flat tappet cam.....I was showing 510 with the mechanical roller that KC was recommending. I think 24 hp is worth not having to go through some of the heartaches and teardowns that some of the other members have went through.
