SD performance's old faithful should do well. 236/242 @ 112lsa (I think). Looking at your objectives...I wouldn't go smaller than 230/236 or larger than 242/246. I think one of those three would do well.

With those gears and a mildly ported set of 722 heads the Performer RPM would be a good choice. If you had more gear then I would say a Torker II. An Offy dual quad would also work if set up properly and give your 64 a period look.

Default One other question...

Will roller rockers fit under stock style rocker covers?



I am currently gathering parts for a 64 Le Mans/Tempest

Should...two things to check:

The poly loc will sometimes hit - several venders make a thick valve cover gasket that should clear: http://www.tinindianperformance.com/...%20gaskets.htm

They are $$ - but can be reused. I don't know if our sponsor has them (PY).

Also - sometimes the corners of larger rollers have to be grinded to clear the valve cover bolt holes.
