Flat tappet cam has an angle on the lobe to facilitate the spinning of flat tappet lifters. This will FUBAR your roller lifters or FUBAR your cam. SHORT answer is NO IT will NOT worky! Or you will be spending many months picking up little metal shavings that will kill your oil pump and bearings. Use only roller lifter on roller cam and visa versa. Good Luck!
