Re: bbc retrofit roller update
Had to lean the grill out about an inch and a half to get the cam out!
Before that, I discovered that a PO had tapped out one of the front main pulley bolts to 7/16 ( the next larger size ). That ended up costing me about 100 bucks because I had to modify the puller I borrowed from AutoZone ( 30 bucks ) and purchase a new balancer ( 70 bucks ) because there's just no way I'm putting the F'd up one back on there! The front cam bearing looks a bit worn but I'm going to assemble the top end back together without replacing the bearings and hope for the best! If I have problems, guess I'll have to pull the block out and freshen it as well then. -klb

Re: bbc retrofit roller update
Looking forward to hearing how it runs! That should be a good cam for your combo I think.

Re: bbc retrofit roller update
Life threw me a curve ball about mid January so I've put all this on hold for a while. Back on it not though. Got the block all cleaned up and ready for assembly.

Re: bbc retrofit roller update
It has a way of doing that...
Will be watching to see how it comes together.
