I then removed all of the roller cam stuff from a 1992 Buick Roadmaster (wrecking yard) and installed them in my 95 block. non-roller but has all the bosses and machined surfaces and drilled and tapped holes to accept all of the factory roller cam stuff (spider, cam retention plate). Anything you can offer would be appreciated. So far I got I should look for one from a big chevy cars '87 or later, trucks sometime in the 90's. Any way to tell externally if it is? Casting numbers or marks, tpi, tbi, whatever. What if I'm looking at a complete engine sitting on some guys garage floor thats allegedly a roller. Any idea on what they would be? Which ones to avoid? Which ones have a lobe for the fuel pump? How about the factory cams? I'm guessing GM made a real nice roller cam that would work fine with a basically stock old truck. Any guidelines, year ranges? Trying to keep the engine looking stock. fuel pump boss that is also drilled for the pushrod? So far I got it either has it or not. It gets used alot unlike our really old cars that are frequently inoperative.īeen trying to research roller blocks on the internets for months, doesn't seem to be a lot of solid info out there.
Not that HAMB-y, I know, but I want to take advantage of the newer tech with my parts-chaser, family hauler '70 K10 suburban.
