Yep - thanks mcollinstn a good brain workout is always healthy.


The B&M blowers were limited to 12k. Not sure about the Weiand. That was just an FYI. I had a ton of the B&M's over the years.

Sent them to Holley in Calf, about $500 each
One was a little noiser than the other--came back the same way--but no problems so far.

The Holley rebuild center isn't in CA, it's in Tenn. They charged me $550 to do one of mine last winter.

Which cam over the stock Crane #132561? Would the 731 be considered the next size up in terms of performance? Dont want more than i need. Only looking to add 75-100hp with heads and cam.

i promise to end this thread soon

We gonna have to charge you soon.Everything sounds fine, should work out well but make sure you dyno both engines and their fully dressed.

hydraulic roller conversion will cost a little $$. Figure $275 for the stick, $400 for the lifters, and $80 for the pushrods.

A good custom blower grind in a flat hydraulic will cost less, you'll use the same pushrods, and a box of $75 lifters. You'll have to go "one size bigger" on the duration to get to the same power level as the roller which will soften your bottom end a touch.

Just a thought (since you are on a budget).

Could have sworn it was Calf------ An I think it was a little less than $500
