My First Stocker Cam

Dwight - On the wolfeperformance website, almost none of the links work & it looks like they are the only retailers. Do you know if they are still in business ? I'd like to read a little about those.

Alan & Mike - Is the Trend "Low movement lifter" what you were refering to ?

Todd & Billy - The bracket motor that I had in this car had 215lbs. cranking compression & worked well with a 2 bbl. Is this in the ballpark ?

Thanks All

Not sure about the Trend lifter,most of the restricted movement lifters are solids w/ .015 movement. Check w/ Trend

Limited movement lifters have been around for a long time. Racers created their own for years before the commercial lifters became available. Trend, Sherman, Schubeck-style, PPP and others have products that work. You can make your own by modifying OEM style lifters with shorter springs, sleeves that fit inside, or fixing solid lifters to act like a hydaulic.
