I dont know where you got your 4 bolt main block but the 87+ blocks are designed for roller lifter, while later uses flat tappits. TPIS is probably your best place to ask, but there cams ae designed for roller cams, hence TPI started, mainly, after 87.
Why didn't you up the valves on your L98 heads to 2.02 intake? Looks like you are doing well, that combo should make a done of power!!! (Plus- Did you get your name from Islam? Just curious)

Martyr is short for Marty R. . No Islamabad going on here (Don't need a daisy cutter landing in my front yard).
W would up the valves if it weren't to much work. Do I have to machine anything?
Talked with the guy I bought the long-block from today and he said it was originally a roller cam but his previous client wanted a cam grind that required a hydraulic cam. Just know this makes things alot more expensive. I might have a line on a Crane Compucam 2032HR, used; but the lifters are going to kill me if I have to buy them new. $350+.
Any more input would be appreciated....should I get any trany work done since the engine is going to be out of the vehicle? Stock 700r4...60k + Miles.
