Retrofit hydraulic roller lifter

pishta said

@mopardude318 whats the lift of your cam? Any roller Ill go with will be a solid. IDK if bushing the bores is mandatory but the link bar style must be the crimp style crossbar as the straights will hit an LA's oil galley castings. when all is said and done on a bushed LA block, you could probably have picked up a roller block.

It’s a Hughes hydraulic roller cam. .576/576 lift. 256/258 dur @ .050. I think a 112 CL. It does have the crimp style crossbar. The block I used is a ‘73 360.

from now on, I’ll only use the pre magnum LA roller cam block for a build. I currently have one being built at IMM for my little blower build. And another roller cam 360 sitting under my work bench for a later date. I’d like to pick up a roller 318 and do a max 318 build with solid roller, gear drive, trick flow heads or even W2’s. But I don’t know of anyone who’d spend the money on that build just to do it. I’m crazy enough.
