just food for thought, based on my 3.40 rears and the old school muncie OD tranny that I have in my 56 chevy short bed truck, what do you guys think the motor would like more for cruising in OD at 70mph at about 2150-ish, a hydraulic 264 or a mechanical 268 cam more? so I can just swap out the lifters and call it good and this will make it hydraulic? no mods to the cam are necessary at all? is it also true that hydraulics are better for low end torque while still retaining good top end power, while mechanicals do better up top but trade off down low by not being as good off idle as hydraulics? I am not trying to be redundant but I just want to get everything perfect, and lobe seperation, is it best to have as little as possible like 102 degrees-110?


you can lead people to truth, but you can't make them see it!
