Looks like we'll have to replace the cam in our engine, so now I'm shopping cam kits.

So what, exactly, do you have to do to make a roller cam kit work? I've read something about
grinding the lifters somehow, but that's about it.

I know the roller cams/lifters are a lot more expensive, but I'm hoping for longevity
(at least more than our last two engines had).

If I can't do rollers, then I'm thinking the Comp Cams 42-207-4, which if I understand it
is the one JimB developed.

thanks,
Karen
