Main reason for not running a flat tappet cam is today's oil doesn't have zinc and other additives necessary to make a flat tappet live... Also, a hydraulic roller offers a lot faster ramps, reduced friction, and all-around better performance!

- Model cars were a big part of the process. The one that is the happiest memory was a '40 Ford coupe. Painted it a pearl green, mid tone color, and used white corduroy to simulate tuck and roll...
