My question is one of longevity. Have you done any extended mileage testing, or, do you have an idea of how long the roller setup could be left in service????

I think "toomanyponchos" Has about 5 or 6 thousand miles on his so far. I dont see a down side to leaving it in the engine, period. The roller set up uses oil from the crankcase and is positivily(pressured oil) oiled from the factory oiling system from the front of the block. It does not rely on oil splash like roller cam bearings. I still have the same one in my circle track car with several seasons on it. It still runs very good!

Maybe some other customers can chime in here.

Thanks for looking......
