Hello Guys, new guy here. I'm a bit confused by all the terminology regarding the cams, lifters and rockers on the FE engines. Flat tappet, solid lifter cams , hydraulic lifters, roller rockers, adjustable this, fixed that ,etc. I've been reading a lot, but still not completely understanding. Based on the info below, can you tell me exactly what this is? Would it be a solid lifter cam with solid lifters and adjustable rockers? No rollers or hydraulics.
