WTB : Hyd Roller cam & lifters for early non-roller block
Okay... I found a cam ... Now I need a set of retro-hydraulic roller lifters to make it work I'm looking for a healthy cam around 230-240 mid 5's lift for an early 409" block ... I tend to favor Comp Cams stuff ... I can't afford this right now but , what the hell , I love my vette

409... Big Block or Small Block? If SBC, I have an Xtreme Energy Hydrolic Roller Retro-Fit for non Roller Small Block Chevys. p/n XR282HR.
It has less than 3K miles. Its better suited for carbs. I am swtiching to Fuel Injection so I need a cam with wider LSA. If you go with 1.6 rockers you'll have 544/555 lift.

Sorry but I’m keeping the roller lifters for the new cam I’ll be getting. Probably 268XFI HR13. The XR282HR cam is installed on a 350 (originally non-roller) that I had installed in an ‘84 Z28 carbed. I sold the Z28 body but kept the engine which is now on an engine stand. I plan on installing this engine into my 91 vette but I will be going Fuel Injected. I’d be willing to let the cam go for $175 plus shipping.

Hi Bob, I pulled the cam out of the engine yesterday. It looks good showing very little wear from normal usage. Right now, I am packaging it and I will send this out either late today or early tomorrow. I will PM you the tracking # once I send it off.
