Yeah I didn't think you had a roller lifter problem based on your other diagnosis.

The fact you got 16 years out of a short block you don't know the history on I'd say you did pretty good. Now you can build it back better and not have to sink as much money in it as you might have initially thought

I'm still doing the full build, so the money isn't necessarily changing. Although, I'll be able to sell the cam. I know there's a couple people looking for stump puller type cams.

You're correct, this will be the engine for the next 20 years or so.
