He has a Pontiac 468 that is under 600 HP and you know where these engines make max power. Relatively low RPM. He is not going to need a lot of spring pressure for his situation. So IMO if he runs a good SS rocker with stud girdle and sft cam he will not be in a high maintenance position as long as he runs the right oil.
I have seen a person break a lifter bore with a SR cam that should not have simply by running way too much spring pressure for his intended RPM. Pontiacs have weak lifter bores and attention needs to be paid to that fact.
Pretty sure people knew where I was going.
Stop trying to start a argument Stan.

So that is what you call it when I ask you to explain a statement you made.

I have some questions about this post but I will not ask them because I don't what to start an argument.
