I've been searching on the net for RV8 Roller Cams but not much info on them ..

Anyone on her tried them ?

Who makes them / imports them ?

Any disadvantages.

I already have PEP roller rockers on Wildcat heads .. so no need for KB's.

Roller cams just seemed like a great idea but not much out there on them.

Also, Rovers have small cam journals which means the lobe journals have to be small. There will be a lot of acceleration involved which needs to be controlled.

Fit a turbo, it'll be less painful and make loads more power ;-)
Could do I suppose as I have a Turbo lying around and a space at the front of the engine
biggrin
