Hey all,
Seems that Comp Cams is out of blanks to build me a roller cam, as I wanted to retain the stock roller lifters that were in the 360. They may have some late July or August. I didn't want to wait that long.
I was going to use their Thumpr hydraulic roller.
Specs:
Dur - 283/303
Lift - 513/498
RPM - 1900-5600
Seeing as it wasn't available, the supplier got us what they thought was close, in a flat tappet. I don't think it's close, but I'm no expert.
It's their Mutha Thumpr hydraulic flat tappet.
Specs:
Dur - 287/304
Lift - 497/483
RPM - 2200-6100
Searching thru Summit, I found what I think they meant to send. It's stock number is very close to the one above.
It's their Big Mutha Thumpr hydraulic flat tappet.
Specs:
Dur - 295/312
Lift - 507/494
RPM - 2500-6400
Is there a big difference between the three of them?
I have a fresh 408, with 9.8-1 comp (10.5 maybe, can't recall), 3.91 rear end. I'm shooting for around 450hp, but 500 would sure be nice.
Is there anything else that I should consider?
I'd really like to get this thing running this month. =P~
Thanks for your replies.
