66Snake,

You might want to have Drew take you for a ride before you decide on the Hyd Roller!

I've had both and the only draw back to the solid roller is you need to adjust the lifters once in awhile and with the miles we put on these cars it would be once a year. Heck, all the 427 Side Oilers have a solid lifter cams which is not as good as a solid roller.....

What I don't like about the Hyd Roller is it runs out of juice at 6,300 RPM where a solid roller will keep building HP up to 7,000-8,000 RPM. That's why all the race cars run solid rollers. This bull S___t about running a solid roller on the street is just that, a bunch of guys making statements and don't know what they are talking about. Same statements about a dominator on the street.
A solid roller in the combination Keith priced for you would be about 30 or 40 more HP just with the solid roller. Just my thoughts but I've work for Ford Motor Company for 25 years and have had tons of cars and my next one will have a solid roller!

TerrySPF,

You must of not see some of my past replies to you under the Dallas Feb 1 meeting post, as I gave you Keith Craft's phone number: 870-246-7460. I also replied that the only thing I did to Drew's cobra was adjust the carb as all these engine builders make them rich because of the dyno time. "Be Carefull" on heads as Superformance does not make headers except for the normal Ford head bolt pattern. Keith likes the Brodix heads over AFR etc as they flow better. SPF does not make headers for them unless custom ordered. Drew sent the header flanges to SPF and had 2 inch custom headers made for the Brodix heads, which really make the engine flow especially with those stainless steel side pipes he has.
