[DeTomaso] Comp Cam's roller lifters

[Stephen Nelson]

When Denny Aldridge built our 351C he used Comp Cams roller lifters. Thank
the lord above that he then dyno'd the engine - and found the lifters would
not stay up.  His stroke with Comp Cams got the tear-down and re-dyno pad
for.  Needless to say, I was not impressed.   Can't say I would recommend
them.

   I've not run -that- exact kit, but I did put a similar set of parts
   together on my own over 15 years ago and they worked great!  In my case
   I used the Crane Cams roller conversion kit, with a Crane 351C
   hydraulic roller cam and lifters.  It was easy to install.  I didn't
   use a roller timing gear set though, I used a Pete Jackson (quiet)
   gear-drive set instead.
   The engine ran several thousand miles and successfully competed in the
   Silver State Classic Challenge three times at triple digit speeds.
   I don't think you'll be disappointed.
