No man, with that kind of power you're gonna want to go with a good roller like Jesel, Crane or Comp. Probably the Jesel shaft mounted.

I've been told by the engine builder i can use stockers, cam isn't crazy lift
232-238 .5xx .5xx 114+4 and only going to 6400rpm on 15-17 psi. i don't have the money for jesel for a few more months lol.im probably going to detune for 650-750 to get a feel of the new power.

yeah i plan on getting another kind, but for now ill use the upgraded stockers since not spinning the motor crazy high and stuff. until i get aftermarket heads. was looking to see if others with gm heads have been okay using stockers since searching didn't really say most are replacing the heads and using hs or yt rockers some scorpions.
