Keep in mind we're talking about motors that were produced in the 1960's and 70's. There hasn't been a flat tappet motor to come out of Detroit since 1985. So, we're talking at least 40 year old motor design. When was the last set of Shubeck's made? At least 10 years maybe 15.
Some people have said. I see you have your car for sale. YES I do. Mainly because it's a pain for an old timer with arthritis to get in and out of. Some have also said it's another nail in the coffin for the stockers. Let me tell ya something. That horse left the barn A LONG TIME AGO. If the rule were changed I doubt it would say you have to run the roller lifter.

Yes and No. Some of the OHC motors are cam on bucket and the bucket really is nothing more than a large diameter flat tappet.
