Also i am upgrading from my .588/.614 flat tappet cam to a .641/.647 hydraulic roller cam.
Hoping to make more power to the rear wheels, looking for 600rwhp but we'll see.
Heads and Intake are going to be ported and polished as well.

sound s good!! Now that my 533 is tuned better I'm hoping for 550rwhp through my c6. Are you sure you want to go with hydraulic roller? From what I've read, people have been having a hard time getting them to live on the 385 series.lifters too tall and bad pushrod angles. everyone on 460ford says its better to just go solid roller.
From what i have heard if i had the exact same cams one solid flat tappet in the same motor and one hydraulic roller. The hydraulic roller would make 15 more HP.
it depends on the engine. The 385 series hyd. roller lifters are big and heavy. I wouldn't really expect more power out of it vs. a solid flat tappet, you might see more but not much of a difference. The biggest difference will be No maintenance.

I had Paul Kane rebuild my original oil pump. We took it apart and there was no damage, looked brand new inside, no metal at all.

Before they were ported and polished they were 2.25inch tall and 2.5inch wide.

Dana, that still doesnt make sense. A real grandma could/should run double + The MPH's The car ran. I hope you get a real engine/tune package this time, you were shorted previously!

From the damage and the re-balancing of the new motor sounds like the old one was never balanced correctly, not sure if that would cause it.

Yeah must have been down on power before. New set up should be dialed in. My 69 Camaro and your 67 would probably be a fun race..plus they would both look sick going down the track!
