Engine build question

[bryankichler]

your right on the hone rering on this one. I got this motor in a deal it was a fresh build my guess is improper break in on the cam or sat long enough for the everything to dry up oil system wasn't primed and drove I am guessing its the cam going and yes i agree. I do think i would run into clearance issues but i know it was 292 duration cam i dont recall all the other specs but most ive seen are not under .500 lift so im thinking there is already some worked. I am satisfied with the power it puts out now mainly looking to convert over to a roller cam and id like to get some a little more out of it you can never get enough.

on the roller block its hard to find a good deal on one plus they usually have vortec heads which are great but with higher lifts they will need work just to get them to handle everything.

I do agree once i get home and tear into it it will make things a lot easier. I do not plan to purchase anything till its tore down and been to the machine shop to have it all checked.
