street solid roller cam
Hi guys,
is there such a thing as a mild solid roller cam for a 454 BBC??
I am looking to replace my hydraulic roller (230/236 @ .050", .547" lift, 112 deg lobe centers) with a similar solid roller, so I can get a few more revs out of it - currently 5500rpm before valve float.
Engine is 454 (bored + .030") 9.8:1 compression, Edelbrock Performer RPM heads, Performer RPM intake, Chuck Nytten Holley 750 double-pumper (flows 890cfm). 3000lb car with Tremec TKO600 5-speed manual trans. This is a street car, with the occasioanal 1/4 mile squirt, so I need something tractable.
Any recommendations, anyone?
Thanks,
Chris
You're welcome Mike, glad it worked out for you. Roger, it's taken a few years but my inventory of excess parts has shrunk a fair bit from 1 1/2 garage stalls to about an eight by eight space. ...
