I have complete six stromberg 97 twin log intake set. Air cleaners, linkage, fuel logs, carbs.

I used edelbrock rpm springs retainers and keepers for big block Chevy. Umbrella valve seals. Fit perfect. Ordered right out of Summit catalog. Tjr

If you wish to sell the roller lifters, I am interested. I am in California 209 609 9730. Tim reinarts

Rev kits. Came across old ISKY roller cam rev kit. Thinking of having CNC cut billet aluminum plates for pattern so can use different and more modern type of springs. Maybe for use with standard hydraulic or flat tappet cam. Still in thought process, so any ideas and thoughts are welcome. With a lit...

I would suggest a high pressure oil pump. One for FE ford is interchangeable. I would avoid thicker oil on a new engine. Maybe a 10-30 or 15-40 at most. Never had hydraulic lifter problems. TJR

Thank you. Have Roller rockers and hardened shafts. Can't find any of the old Isky roller lifters, and I am waffling back and forth about running a roller cam.

That is a big engine. TJR

I have not seen any data, and Slover said he did not think any MEL head could flow over 300. So I really do not know what the limitations or advantages there are for any of the MEL heads....

So I gotta ask..........where is this boat? I saw an old flatbottm many years ago near Napa Ca kind of like you describe. Guy would swap from tri power to 8 duces to a stock four barrel setup. Gold or Mustard colored. Pretty sure he blew up the engine. Boat sat tied to a dock for a few years and guy...
