I don't think thats what he ment. Revelation Z28 has the port and polish covered. Trending Topics

Go with 918s.. its what is on the card for the 306.. I'm running them, they are really nice. Also titainium retainers, and whatever locks are recommended.. can't remember what they are off the top of my head. Just a suggestion. Or you could go solid roller, and get a custom cam. Wish I would have done that. Next time I will. Can't remember, what year came with hardened pushrods? May want to look into those. Good luck with the build.

The Ti retainer weighs 6 grams and the steel retainer weighs 10.8 grams. For the $200 differance, it is not worth the 4.8 grams. I know this from my own purchases of the two types of retainers. I was very angry with myself!!
