Thanks, any feedback appreaciated.

Will Lamprecht Div. 1 I/SA 396/325 65 Impala in progress

My car was stored for 26 years and 4 years ago started to update the car somewhat (call me stupid). Well bodywork, paint, trans, converter, the list goes on. So decided to put it in C/SA from B/SA. Can't run with those anymore. So it's a 63 Max Wedge wagon and got to the motor (flat tappet). New Bullet cam $760, tool steel DLC coated lifters $1600, pushrods, etc, etc. Ready for the dyno. My point is I don't want a rule change now to roller lifters after all the money I have spent. Just my opinion. Have read most of the posts on this and there are good reasons for and against a rule change.

Not wishing any bad on ya but if you haven't had on Dyno yet you might have spoke too soon. Good Luck.

We have done everything we can do to avoid problems. Never know. Will put it on the dyno at Line Performance, can't ask for a better place to do it. I can't wait for a rule change that may never come. Retired, that's why it took so long. Bought this car in 1976 at the U S Nationals. Part of the family now.

You are in good hands and you made a good call.
