I need some suggestions on which way to go on cam swap from Flat tappet to Retro HR.



I have a 73 BBC and wanted to know what the pros and cons are from using the Gen VI roller cam in the MarkIV


Ive read that using the VI cam in the IV block i would have to use the VI timing set with cam retainer and could use my stock timing cover and the retro rollers no end play adjustment and be done with it


And using the retro roller in the IV i would need the retro roller cam ,retro rollers,IV timing set and cam button and possible shims to set end play?
