And the lift is sedate enough that you can run it with press in rocker studs with little fear that you will start pulling one out. I buzzed my .030 over 350 with stock bottom end and press in studs to 5k rpm shift points. I had 25+ quarter mile blasts and a few thousand street miles before parking that engine and moving to a hotter setup. It was most definitely low dollar fun.
