Re: Building my 283

Wait... are you saying don't go roller?

Ramp rates are going to still be slow on any flat tappet cam compared to a roller. Maybe I'm thinking XE=roller in comp speak and I'm wrong, but, if there's a roller retrofit for this tiny motor, I'd think that would make the best power due to the superior ramp rates over flat tappet. Unfortunately the cost is enormous!
