Because I believe its the lowest bang per buck you could choose. You're going to be into it well over a grand for just cam & lifters, and chances are it wont perform on par with a solid flat tappet at a third of the cost. I'm sure it will work just fine and if money is no object, fire away. Just considering how much you will spend, its not the direction I'd go with a big-inch RB.

So you have never run one... and your just guessing
on the performance aspect... I'm well aware of the
price end of it but I think it would be fine for my
street/strip SB

Since you're being picky, Mike... I'll point out that I never said it wouldn't work. It will obviously work just fine. "working just fine", as you said, isn't quite what I would hope for when spending that kind of money. Thats my point, and its a point that would be shared by many.

Back to the OP, I'm glad you found a good solution for the converter question! sounds like you'll have a converter tailored to your combo for a very reasonable cost!
