Welcome! I'll chime in on your cam choice. You can make a flat tappet cam work if you're careful about your oil choice, very careful with your initial start and break in process, and a bit lucky. You'll have a better chance of a trouble free engine if you go roller cam with the main line oils available today. Most folks shy away from flat tappet cams, and wouldn't take a used flat tappet cam for anything but an art project.Roger
Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.

Not sure whether i should get new drums or convert to disc brakes. Everything is stock at the moment. Im hoping to be done building the car by end of next year.
Sorry for your loss of friend Mike McGee, Shine. Great trans men are few and far between, it seems. Sadly, Mike Frade was only 66 and had been talking about retirement for ten years that I know...
