Not to hijack the thread, but I have a 385 series and, of course, I've seen where some people have concerns about pushrod angularity with hydraulic roller lifters. I'm still leaning toward the rollers, even though I'm likely to end up with a cam around 0.600" valve / 0.350" lobe lift and 230°/240° duration @ 0.050". |
I have no issues with hydraulic rollers (or any rollers) in my 385 series engines. A .600" lift cam is pretty mild these days, I usually run a minimum of .630" lift and on up.
My solid rollers for pulling engines will go up to 1" lift with a roller cam.
