I agree, get a take out stock roller set-up, you can get them for next to nothing.

gen6

ezstriper

yes, have to use gen VI because of timing cover, but were using a roller...

Thanks for your help guys!

No, you'll have to use a IV or V timing set. The VI is for a step nose cam and will not work on your flat tappet. Some doubles fit inside the stock timing cover but if you have any clearance issues you can just use a good quality single, or get an aftermarket cover.

I have found a roller and springs so I think we're going that route. Anyone have a set of push rods for a Gen 6?

protechcoat

you said you found a gen6 block it is mage for roller cams just like the gen 5 . all your old parts should fit .ive built lots of them.

Gen 5 had flat tappets. He needs pushrods for his new roller set up.

ezstriper

you are going to need to assemble engine and then check to see what length push rod you are going to need...
