Question Bullet SBF Cams

Just heard Bullet is out of SBF hydraulic roller cores and won't be ordering anymore. Anyone else know if this is true?

It depends on the type of camshaft core you want to use.
As I understand the cast hydraulic cores are becoming extinct.

Yeah the cast flat tappet stuff is going away due to crappy cores and lifters. But the 8660 cores I thought weren't a problem

Reach out to Daniel Powell at Powell Cams in Iva, SC.
He may have some cores.

You've got it backwards - they have plenty of hydraulic roller cores, but no cast flat hydraulic tappet cores, no idea when they may be available.

That's what I thought. I questioned this person saying I knew they're doing away with flat tappet stuff, pretty much all of us are due to crappy lifters. But rollers????
