    Sam is a real treasure! I sure hope you guys all realize that he is a true asset to have around and treat him as such, not just a meme to put in the videos. I think you all mean more to him than you realize, take it from an old guy, it means a lot to pass on some of what you know and to be valued for your experience.

    I would have went with a hydraulic roller cam with Morel lifters . You have to keep lots of Zinc additive to keep those BBC flat tappets from rounding off ( or use Amsoil Z-Rod oil after breaking in with their break-in oil). Can't wait to see it mudding !

  • @frankensteincreations4740

    Most people have no clue why you have to “break in” a flat tappet cam. The only way the cam lobes are lubricated is from oil sling off the crankshaft. That’s why the 2k rpm is so important… To produce enough “sling” to lubricate the lobes as the lifters and lobes seat to one another… 👍

      @frankensteincreations4740 Před rokem +2

      @@robwigglezz944 yeah… another thing not many people know… they’re slightly round on the bottom. And the cam lobes are angled, not square. This is to make the lifters spin. When they quit spinning is when it wipes the lobe out 👍 all reasons why I run a hydraulic roller lol

Throw the old heads away, or replace those studs. Either the threads are spent or they are no longer the right length.
