i have a 500 efi cam for 200. plus the ride,the gen6 roller lifters and the dogbones and pushrods from a 502 mag for xtra 50 bucks.

demax990 01-17-2015 06:02 PM

So mike 150 for everything I pay shipping :fear:

Correct me if I am wrong but I don't think that the gen 6 roller lifters will work in the gen 5 block with out some machining/modifications. For it to be a put in and play you need the retro fit or "bar" type of lifters to prevent the lifters from rotating in the lifter bores. I know on the gen 6 the "dog bones" prevent this from happening but from what I understand the gen 5 had no where to install the dog bones as the top of the lifter bores( inside the valley) do not have a machined surface for them to sit and no spot for the retainer to bolt to. Can anyone confirm this

sutphen 30 01-17-2015 10:02 PM

gen 5 needs the tie bar,I just have to check that I have a full set.people like to borrow my left over parts.:(

Sutphen let me know I want to do the 500 efi cam and rockers

dereknkathy 01-18-2015 07:12 AM

i believe some gen 5's have the surfaces for the dog bones and mounting holes for the spiders already done to them from the factory. i assume you have the intake off and are sure yours does not?

demax990 01-18-2015 09:28 AM

No I have not it is still together. I am collecting parts right now. I am going to start to rip it down in the next few weeks

mike tkach 01-18-2015 09:42 AM

for some reason i thought you had a gen6.the lifters and dog bones from a gen6 won,t work in a gen5.
