Unfortunately the cost is enormous!

Nothing against going roller...although the price of a roller is too steep for me...yes there's fears of flattening a flat tappet cam...
I would only use a roller where there's a significant potential power gain, and a much larger cube engine...
The Comp XE line of cams is too over rated...they have some uses that work, but not that much....and not in this 283 that will have a comp ratio of over 9:1
