Wanted: Roller cam parts

I have a 92 chevy block that has the factory provisions for a roller cam, but came with a flat tappet cam. I need EVERYTHING except for the camshaft. Lifters, spider, pushrods, and whatever else might be necessary. Thanks!

That would be great! Whatever bolts and other hardware you can save would help a lot too. My zip code is 14621

I've got a junk roller block that I'm using to fit. Won't need the spider and such, it's all there, lifters and all. However I won't be back in state till like the 3rd

In case you didn't know, you'll need new lifters, just smarter to buy brand new ones so they seat properly. & I'd personally buy new pushrods as well.

Re: Wanted: Roller cam parts

No Luck; I was thru the garage yesterday and couldn't find the spider and dog-bones..... I'm thinking that it's best to get all that stuff from one place so hopefully another member has all the stuff that your lookin' for. Good Luck !

I haves lifter setup from a '97 Chevy pickup, it should be what you need. Have the lifter hold down plate, dog bones, cam retaining plate (and bolts), pushrods, and two set of roller lifters.
