    Hard to say without knowing the reserve, though...unless you're selling them?

    Good point!
    But, I am not the seller. In general, if I am ever the high bidder when something doesn't reach reserve, I am in touch with the seller to try and strike the "deal".:pray:

    Yes, that would be true, and the high bidder would be me... now to see if the seller gets back to me.

    You know, there are good monsters and bad monsters... which do you prefer? :Brow:
    I'm still collecting parts for my '68 project. I should soon have enough gathered to begin the machining. A roller lifter and rocker combo would be sweet, don't you think!
    No word from the seller yet.

    69GS400s ...my own amusement ride!

    thinks you would need the roller cam as well :Do No:

    ...and a lifter bore girdle, TA 1559 series cam bearings, TA ROL100 thrust washer and a TA ROL 150 cam bumper. They recommend a gear oiler too.

    But hey, it's only money!

    No sense being buried with it, right? :bla:
    My wife wants a '73 corvette... I've almost convinced her that a 450 HP '68 LeSabre is equally cool. Maybe if I can step it up past 500 HP she'll be fully convinced? What do you think? :Do No:

    I say go for it, but you sure don't need a roller cam to do that! Put the money where it matters! Serious head work and a flat tappet cam will do just fine.

    Or, if you must go roller, wait for TA's street roller cams which are in the works.
