[QUOTE="Red98422, post: 200146, member: 4913"] From what I understand with these particular engines are really difficult to “over cam” and your valvetrain would be the weak point. If you answer PJ’s question above it will help the folks here to give you advice. (Rockers: “T” or shaft?) also did you upgrade the springs as part of the package with the original cam? I’m thinking that going to a MTS15 could put undue strain and cause a failure if your using otherwise stock parts (I could also be very wrong so seek other opinions as well). Also Stupid question but would the pattern of wear moving in and out indicate lifters jumping off the bevel? Or maybe distributor shaft play? [/QUOTE]
