It's the question of how much horsepower you want....

What are you shooting for? 300? 400?

You wanting to use original solid type lifters? Or do you wanna go with roller this time?

I'm using a Comp Cams hydraulic roller. I love it. I wished I would have went with the next cam up though, as it doesn't match my Vic Jr. single plane intake very well.

I'm using Vic Jr. heads. I'm making 484hp and 500 lb-ft....with the cam change and a little head work, I should be able to pull a lot more out of the engine. Of course I'm at 425 cubes.

Did you get your block to the machine shop? What compression you planning on running?

Like I said earlier, tell us how much power you wanna make...that will help us make a better selection of parts.
