Nice combo,otherwise. To do 500,requires a rowdy grind out of a 360.A solid flat tappet will get you there cheaply.A roller(both kinds)will be more streetable,but hurt your pocketbook.What are you willing to spend,what street driveability can you deal with?

Not really--I've done it many times--with cast iron cyl heads. I've used as little as 238 @ .050 in a hydro-roller up to 242 @ .050" hydro all the way up to 246 @ .050" in a solid roller. Always with a stock stroke.

p.s. I don't think you would see much improvement other than a bit of high rpm "pull" if you switched out what you have now. If you do--then go all the way to a roller. J.Rob
