Old - Hydraulic ft: 240/246@.050, .507/.510, 110lsa
New - Solid ft - 248/252@.050, .538/.544, 110lsa
So, not a ton different, but should make more power and take better advantage of the TF 240's.
Factoring in lash, they look almost identical. I too would always lean toward a soild. yeah, I like solids too. After having to replace 2 hydraulic rollers in my last engine, and never having an issue w 3 previous engines that had solid FT's, I decided to go w the solid. Also a change from my previous self, I asked for the size smaller than the original cam recommendation. Formerly, would have asked for the next size up . I've definitely gone soft.

Also, picked up a sweet 950 carb from BradH (to replace the 830 QF elec choke carb). Brads carb looks amazing and nicely baselined for my combo. He also Included a detailed build sheet and even some extras for tuning. He knows his stuff!
Thanks, but please hold off on the praise until you're happy with how it's working. Fair enough. So far you're 10 for 10 in 2 of the 3 categories

Cool, a little progress. That's sort of a race carburetor isn't it? (Edited my signature to reflect the sentiment posted earlier)

I thought the shiny/billet factor counted twice.

Finished the trick flow 240 and cam swap and so far I am extremely happy. No dyno numbers but mash the pedal and smiles appear . Still need to try out my new Brad H carb, but also need to install some stickier tires. I'll try to upload a vid clip as well. Love the sound w/ the new comp cam solid. All in all, I am happy I made the changes.

I know you cheated. I saw a second grader sitting at your computer earlier.
On a somewhat related note, I've dyno tested two 500 inch Mopar big blocks this week with Trick Flow 240 heads and hyd roller cams. Both engines required a bunch of fuel and timing at cruise to keep from burning up the exhaust. The big problem was right around 2000 rpm with a slight load. Roughly equal to driving down a flat freeway at 70 mph. The tune file that was working in my Coronet last summer would not work in either of these engines. The EGTs would go skyhigh and the engine would shut down. We ended up adding a bunch of timing (35 to 40 degrees) and adding some fuel and then they were happy.
I do not know what is going on but I suspect it has to do with how well the Trick Flow 240 heads flow at low lift. Perhaps the intake charge is getting sucked into the exhaust or something like that. Anyway, just keep an eye on your engine if you are out cruising on the freeway. Your carb might fat enough already but I really doubt you have much ignition advance at 2000 rpm since you don't have vacuum advance on that MSD. So you are probably running low to mid 30's and you don't have any way to get more advance than that. would spreading the LSA on the cam help with that cruise quirk??
