Is there such a thing, know they make a flat tappet but cant find this anywhere on the web.
Any help would be appreciated.

Fwiw saw walmart is now selling cams and speed parts. Hope they dont beat up Summit/Jegs

App is an 88 C4 tpi...ive used the FT version which works great on these but need a roller this time round
Deciding between this and an Isky I found.

Below are two screen shots of the 256 voodoo hydro flat tappet cam and smallest voodoo hydro roller cam(262) directly from Lunati’s cam catalogue.

To answer your question, I do not believe that Lunati makes a 256 roller cam. However you may be able to have one custom made.

I posted the pictures of the cams side by side so you can see that the “larger” 262 roller cam isn’t really much larger. It actually has 2 degrees less duration on the intake than the 256 at 0.050” lift. Same exhaust duration at 0.050”. Same lobe separation angle. More lift. And pretty much the same power band. My vote is that you get the 262 roller. The only main difference is that you’ll make more power.

Walmart is not selling cams. People are selling cams through the Walmart Marketplace (like people who sell their own stuff on Amazon or Newegg).

Thanks...he cant afford (owner) a custom cam.
That roller looks good. Only alternative I kind of liked was this from Isky. Hes gotta pass ca which I know a FT 256 sure that roller would also.


If he had a hair more gear.effiicent head I was debating this Elgin
E1872p .444 .467 288/298 214/224 69 overlap 107lsa int 117 exh.
or
E1186p .462/.470 288/284 210/215 68 overlap 106/114
probably older lazier grinds but would work?

Guessing the final 2 choicesare the Lunati and Isky (thanks for posting that).
Being as he probably wont use a 1.6 rocker nor need one with either one should do.
