Radical Solids = shorter life

By Wayne K. - 02/25/2005 9:38:56 PM; IP 4.240.251.63

I conclude that a set of roller rockers would last much longer with an engine using a mild hydraulic camshaft & single valve springs as opposed to say the same type of engine using a solid .600"+ cam running roller tip abusing .027" valve lash and double valve springs.

The 416 I'm building will have the Erson rollers and that .027" lash / .600" cam. I don't expect 100,000 miles out of anything...
