Roller all the way!


Tech brings up a very good point.....and that is to try and get a one piece rear main seal block already set up for a roller cam.

You might be money ahead doing this as those engines are pretty cheap from the boneyard and you could leave your running engine in the truck untill the new one is built, no double engine removal then.......then use the parts from the old block such as intake etc, whatever you plan to re use.
