Makes since to me. Equals out the old with the new. Also, lockup converters. Again, equals out the old with the new.

Roller cams and 5 speed transmissions, lets really equal out the fields.

Sure. Why stop there, though? I think that 55 Chevys should get the entire top end from the baby Caprice taxi 265..Computer and all.
While we're at it, it's not fair that the 55 cam only has .330 lift. It should get the .450 lift cam too....in the interest of fairness and equality ,of course.

Stupid, learn how to pick valvetrain components and this doesn’t happen

Roller lifters break of course but they'll be less abused with the average stocker having .400-.500" lift as opposed to the .800" in a super stocker. Starting a new engine without the dreaded cam break in fear and changing valve springs on the engine would be nice.

Sometimes it can be harder to control a lifter on a smaller lobe then a larger one. Just food for thought. Roller lifters should be rebuilt or thrown away after some time. You don’t really have that issue with solids.

Been there done that (Dallas National) last weekend. Thankfully Brenda caught it almost immediately...I happened at engine startup at the scales. You are fooling yourself if you think there is less breakage/cost with roller lifters. When the do go bad...they go really bad.
