Default Post your solid roller setups
I'm looking for some examples of what people have done or are doing with solid roller stroker motors.

I currently have a TREX hydrolic roller setup and want to move to a solid.

Old motor:

Comp 260/260, .665 lift, 108lsa, T&D shaft rockers. Don't remember the specs on the springs, but they were in the neighborhood of 500lbs open pressure...

That cam was a valvetrain "beater" though, and was very hard on valvetrain parts. Very aggressive lobes...

That is a crazy setup, I love that.

Did you consider 106 or 108 LSA when you were getting the cam ground?
