Re: no oil at roller rockers
Yeah, start with something like a Dart SHP block, and a good forged rotating assembly. Build a truly nice solid foundation. Then you can do most anything you want, within reason.

Re: no oil at roller rockers
This is just a street engine, once done the car is going up for sale as he is downsizing.

If he came to me to have a supercharged street engine built, I'd do what I posted above, or send him elsewhere. I'd never touch a job putting a cheap short block under a supercharger. Not worth the hassle or the risk.

Re: no oil at roller rockers
I cannot place enough emphasis on oil management / control. I have learned the hard way. Taking oil flow "for granted" or having "faith" is a big mistake.
Esp. with a vac pump and a wet sump. |
