I Have A 1969 454 Block. What Modifications Do I Have To Do To Install A Roller Flat Tappet Cam?

Cam, lifters, pushrods and a cam button

springs, retainers, keepers also and degree cam and check for piston clearance

Thanks, I Didnt Know If I Had To Modify Block For The Roller Lifters Or Not. Thanks Again For The Help!

solid roller or hyd roller how much lift you will need to know what cam core you have a one piece steel core or steel/iron gear .or all iron core if you go hyd roller you will need retro roller push rods like comp 7815-16 and a retro roller lifter like crane 13532-16 or ht5010 and a good spring and 3/8 pushods if you go solid you will need roller springs lifters button and heavy wall 3/8 or 7/16 push rods .and could be more you will have to tell me how much lift

if you run solid roller cam and horizontal tie-bars lifters i have seen them rub on the the corners if you run verticals tie -bars then there no clean up
