*Realistic expectations..C-mon jump in!

I would use a hydraulic on anything but super high end big bucks motor. Those cams and lifters are big bucks. Lots of guys raving about the voodoo has lift of around .488 and .514 and sounds really mean. Then you'll have some money for 3.55 gears and a nice converter. I would also use headers on anything that isn't # matching myself.
