Solid Roller Lifter Selection

Penny wise, pound foolish. I would use a SFT before I used a .750 wheel roller. It makes no sense. You have a .904 bore, so why use a wheel that is used because it it’s an .842 bore?

The manufacturers love it because it makes them big bucks.

An it’s not so much the lobes are made for what wheel, it’s the base circle diameter that makes things difficult.

What’s sad and funny at the same time is I almost never see even a decent budget chevy go together with .842 lifter bores. Why? Because they want the bigger wheel. Same reason they all run shaft mounted rockers now, when they and their ancestors who think the earth is flat spent decades and hundreds of thousands of dollars trying to prove the stud mounted rocker was the cats ***.

It’s not the 1990’s any more.
