You're using the Hughes? Thinking about pulling the trigger. My builder wants to use jesel or t&d which I'm fine with but figured I'd check around. I like the price of Hughes better than Jesel and t&d lol
It all depends on application and spring load. Street or race? Flat tappet or roller cam?
He's having the cam custom ground through LSM not sure on the specs I haven't asked. But he did say it will be a solid roller. Street strip 700hp give or take.
For a roller I would use T&D. They make common shaft and individual shaft. If the springs aren't more than 275# on the seat the common shaft will be fine.
Thanks I will check them out
You are fine with Jesel or T&D and you are thinking of saving a few bucks by going to Hughes? I put on Hughes to save a few bucks and then took them off and used Harland Sharp.
Not interested in 440 source. First time build go easy on me huh lol I have a lot of questions that may seem dumb to some who do this for a living.
You're gonna do alright. You were smart enough to pick up on my sarcasm.
. I need caffeine
agree, these wild ideas of ours are money pits > I have hughs rockers on my victor knock off heads. Aprrox. 700 h.p., was copied after a dyno`d 695 horse engine , but I`ve got a little more cam, and more headflow. No problem w/ the lifters so far. 1/6 ratio .628 lift street roller-solid.I don't even know why I'm trying to save money at this point anymore, I got way more into this build than I ever anticipated what's the sense of "saving money" now that I'm almost done
