i have a baker 26t steel and a bdl 28t aluminum that will become redundant when i get a chain on next week.

also have black microtach + single fire adapter. it works great but i went to a consolidated instrumentation.

I think I got the Jim's and S&S mixed up between the Tappets and Rockers. The Tappets are Jim's and Roller Rockers are S&S, correct?

Honestly, I'm struggling with the cam choice. If I don't go with the RS 585's, then I'll probably go with the SE 575's. Of course there is always the Woods W8S or W9BS cams.........

G'mornin Lenny,finally got me a day off...nice windfall!!

S&S roller rockers are pretty well bullet proof;that's a lot of cam you're going with.

I tried W's...SE536...RS567 and now SE497 which I like the best.RS575 V2 are a new cam set for the sporty Intake: 26 96 38 244 .204 575
Exhaust: 44 102 20 244 .172 575
Se 575 are also not so bad,but they don't come alive till mid 3's (in:52)

Have ya talked to Dan about solid push rods versus adjustable??

My understanding is that adjustable pushrods are required with the RS 585's.
