I prefer to stay a little closer to the stovebolt lifter diameter when possible. The Chevy V8 and MOPAR lifers are pretty similar in price, so I don't see any advantage in going to the smaller diameter. My original project was to run a roller cam in the stovebolt engine, and the MOPAR tie bar rollers have the right spacing to run in the stovebolt block. Then I ran into a brick wall, trying to find someone to grind a roller cam for the Chevy six. "The juice ain't worth the squeeze!"
