That roller may......,be fine for the street but, it seems a little high. Reason being, the lifters won't live long with all the stoping & going & thier expensive. I have a 428 & bored it .60 over. 10:4:1 compression. Medium riser heads with extensive porting/polishing. I went with a solid, easy on the valve train & a lot cheaper than rollers. I had Comp cams custom grind my cam. It's for street & strip. 252/260 duration @ .50 600 lift, 110 lobe sep. Idles apx. 1,000 rpm with a manual tranny. Pump gas for the street but, race fuel for the strip. It dynoded at 536 H.P . Does not over heat. I adjust the valves twice per year. For me, it's a very good combination. We like to travel so I did not build it so radical, that it wouldn't be road worthy.
