: I would suggest roller tappets and cam. Pretty simple upgrade to an old block.
Although it is a simple upgrade, it isnt very cheap. (what is, in this field)I thought about going the roller wave but everything I have read says they really have the advantage in the upper rpm's. Due to the increased valve spring pressure needed & additional strain on the valve train, plus the type of driving I will do, I didnt feel the extra expense was worth it in my case. Of course, I'm no expert, but i had some good experienced racers help me with this decision along with a tight budget.
