Elgin

I have had horrible luck with Elgin stuff. Every Elgin hyd lifter I ever put in had at least one noisy one and wore quicker than I'd expect them to. I never ran Elgin solids, but got oil pumps full of dirt and metal, overall I consider them to be low budget quality.

I'd buy a name brand. For a specific cam for a hot street 390, solid lifters, I like Lunati 40508, its 230@.050 and .525 lift It has a pretty steep ramp angle and makes a lot of mid range and upper end. The quality of Lunati is always good. It would be a great match for the Edelbrock RPM with a 750 carb. Stock springs may live at .525, but I'd recommend a good new matching set and "let it rev" It'll be an animal
