Right now I'm running about 160# on the seat and about 450# over the nose. I'm sure others run a lot more, but this is what I'm running. I dont know how much oil pressure matters, but I wouldn't think it would make that much of a difference. ------------------ 1982 Ford F100 2wd Shortbox.

It depends on the cam profile and how you set the valves. Knowledgable NMRA style racers will tell you that you can defeat the plunger to negating any need for lifter oil pressure other than lubrication. That being said, the limiting factor is what the bearing will withstand. The top NMRA class racers replace lifters every event. ------------------ Alex Denysenko Co-Administrator and Moderator NHRA/IHRA/SRA member and licensed Superstock driver MCA member# 53321 NHRA and IHRA SS/LA & SS/MA National Record Holder '00,'01,'02,'03,& '04 First SS/MA in the TENS!

So you're saying if your "pushing the limits" you can get the same benefits of a solid roller and still stay within the class rules. I talked with a CompCams rep a while back and he told me that I could run a hydro roller lifter on some of the less agressive solid roller grinds as long as springs pressures are matched to the profile. He didn't recommend it for obvious reasons but I guess anything is possible if your only goal is to win the next race. Thanks Alex and Dustin.

With the correct push rods you can colapse the juice lifters and force them to act like a solid. That's how it's done. I would never do or recomend it myself unless you have some serious financial resources and are trying to be competitive in a specific "stock" lifter class.------------------ Alex Denysenko Co-Administrator and Moderator NHRA/IHRA/SRA member and licensed Superstock driver MCA member# 53321 NHRA and IHRA SS/LA & SS/MA National Record Holder '00,'01,'02,'03,& '04 First SS/MA in the TENS!

So what would you say is a good spring that a std hyd roller lifter could tolerate and still function normally. 240 duration, .600 lift for example. Comp# 977 or Isky 8005-A sound about right? Would it shorten their life running under a 400# spring? ------------------ 1966 Mustang Coupe: Custom glass hood and BIG scoop sits atop a 289 stroked to 331 c.i., Steel crank, rods and girdle, TFS alum. heads, Stealth 8020 intake, Xtreme 268 Solid Roller, Holley 750 HP, long tubes, 4speed, 9" 3.50 posi. 11.50 @ 116 mph (7.33 @ 93 mph)daily driver!

I would never use a hyraulic roller with .600 lift, but if I did, I suppose that I would want to be at least 180 or better on the seat.------------------ Alex Denysenko Co-Administrator and Moderator NHRA/IHRA/SRA member and licensed Superstock driver MCA member# 53321 NHRA and IHRA SS/LA & SS/MA National Record Holder '00,'01,'02,'03,& '04 First SS/MA in the TENS!

And how fast is your truck again? ? ?

Is that comment supposed to be bad??? I never said or implied that my truck was fast. I don't even know what it runs for a time or mph yet since I haven't gone to the track yet. I just said what I was running and it is working so far. I ran a [email protected] and 0.612" lift comp hyd roller and my spring pressure was only like 115-120# on the seat/a little over 300# open and it caused my lifters to "bounce" on the backside of the lobe and ended up wrecking my cam. I noticed it when I did a cam swap. I know that solid rollers are the way to go if going roller, but for a mainly street driven vehicle, I see the hyd roller as being more practical. Now if it was mainly race and a little street, then I'd go with a solid roller for sure. But, can't the solid rollers be used on a hyd roller cam? What do you lose? The lift will lose whatever your lash is, but do you lose any duration? Because I have been starting to think about switching to solid rollers for the performance end of it. ------------------ 1982 Ford F100 2wd Shortbox.

I don't see why not. Most otc performance hyd roller cams are nothing more than a mild solid roller with a softer ramp and less lift over the nose to keep from collapsing and bouncing the heavy lifters. You should be able to use a tight lash around .012-.016" since it was designed for no lash. I haven't done it, but don't see why you couldn't.I'm sure some of these veteran racers have tried solid lifters on a hyd cam once or twice in their search for more HP! ------------------ 1966 Mustang Coupe: Custom glass hood and BIG scoop sits atop a 289 stroked to 331 c.i., Steel crank, rods and girdle, TFS alum. heads, Stealth 8020 intake, Xtreme 268 Solid Roller, Holley 750 HP, long tubes, 4speed, 9" 3.50 posi. 11.50 @ 116 mph (7.33 @ 93 mph)daily driver!

It was just a question? You seem to be grossly over cammed. ET numbers would confirm that for certain. I doubt if you are actually seeing all of that lift anyway. ------------------ Alex Denysenko Co-Administrator and Moderator NHRA/IHRA/SRA member and licensed Superstock driver NHRA and IHRA SS/LA & SS/MA National Record Holder '00,'01,'02,'03,'04 &'05 First SS/MA in the TENS!

Alex, I didn't pick the cam. Mark McKeown is the one who took all my specs and compiled them into that. Comp tech actually wanted to go bigger, and I talked to 4 different techs. Crane cams said to use the F246 or whatever it is. Mark also designed the cam with the 3.89 gears and a little bit less stall. I've since added the 4.86 gears and the 4000 stall. How much lift do you think I'm losing with the hyd roller lifters? Would you consider going with the solid rollers on the hydro cam? ------------------ 1982 Ford F100 2wd Shortbox.
