502 Lifter Question

Caperat · 07-14-2009, 09:07 PM

I have a mid 90's 502 with non adjustable rocker arms that came from the factory with a flat tappet hydraulic cam rated at 440 hp. The cam and lifters were sold a lond time ago. Does this block take the stock height hyd. lifter that is used in all the old MARK IV blocks or does it take a taller flat tappet lifter? I'm fairly sure that any roller cam installed in this block needs the tall lifters because of tiebar clearence. Any help would be greatly appreciated. ----- Thanks
