non roller cam to roller cam
so ive got an 87 one piece block with provisions for a roller cam but not drilled and tapped for the retainer plate on the nose or the spider for the lifters. anybody ever drill and tap these to use a roller cam in a block like this?

Re: non roller cam to roller cam
just use a cam button..no need for all that stuff..
if you order a comp cam custom cam..get a billet cam with a cast gear..then there is no need for a bronze gear..on the dizz

The block is easy to drill and tap. Don't be scared, have it.

Sounds good and what I figured. Doing it for a friend wants to build a 383 stroker and already has a good top end.
