The intellectual post,about old school camshafts,the newer ramp cams.. and what's needed ,in modifi

I like the idea of an old school grind , lifters with the lube hole in the lifter base, combined with a slightly higher rocker ratio and beehive springs that would match the recomended spring recomendations. If you want, add in some lighter valves or retainers. Most important is MAKE SURE THE LIFTERS ROTATE BEFORE YOU FIRE IT.
The idea is to not exceed the loads on the cam and lifters as originally designed, just put to use the new things available to us. This is my idea of day in day out reliability in a performance engine. Just don't try and force an engine to have a wider torque band with fast rate lobes, unless you know what you are getting into.
Best of all, just start with a roller motor like a magnum, and sleep very well.
