Hydraulic Roller Cam

I just wanted to know if the 1988 Iroc 350s came with a hydraulic roller cam from the factory? And if it didn't, what type of setup did the Rocs have? Thanx for any info fellas.

Yes, all TPI motors from I think 87 on had the hydraulic roller cams. I know that for sure your 88 has one because my 87 has one.
