Car originally came with a PG. So, no solid lifters available. We are 100% certain it came from the factory with the 245 horse version. That's the great thing about an unmolested AZ car; easy detective work.

My very complete dual four 245 horse engine (all but air cleaner, distributor and manifolds) will be here next week or two. It is out of a Corvette, so FG instead of FD; but I have a line on an FD block. So, will likely disassemble and build it right.

IF Crane was still in business, I would have the perfect hydraulic roller to use for it. Don't know what cam is in the newly built engine I have coming. Will have to wait and see.

Open to suggestions on camshaft.
