Lifters dog bones and spiders?

Anyone know where i can get O.E replacement roller lifters, dog bones, and a spider for a L05 350 roller block. the engine had flat tappet stuff in it being a truck engine but has the provisions for a roller cam.

buy them from a parts store or a junkyard you also need pushrods as the flat tappets are shorter than rollers

Yea, any later roller motor you can use the stuff from. Parts store or GM. Not sure if a parts store would stock the spider, since it's not a wear part - GM would have it.

How much is it worth to you? I have everything you need. Kinda sucks it takes away from by roller motor but it is just sitting. I have the lifters too... which you need.

Be prepared to have the spider mounts drilled and tapped if their not tapped already!

The engine is a 87 or later block. it has the bolt holes for the spiders already in the valley. i know i can get the lifters from advance auto, the dog bones i haven't found yet. i'll probably get them from GM if i don't get them anywhere else...not really in a hurry to put the engine together being i'm short on cash.
