im goin off the top of my head here but I believe a little less than 0.400" lift and (172/180 at 0.050")

do you know if you have a roller cam or no?

It's just a solid hydraulic. It's possible the engine is from another year. But I'm just looking for a base-line spec that I can compare to

Ps. I have yet to check the casting # to give me the year.

its about half way down on the second post.  also I read thru the thread real informative about what cams to use with what heads for great power gains.

Thank you. Yes, I forgot to be specif, I just call flat tappet lifters "solid" because of their "solid" appearance. Not to confuse you with other lifters/cams. I was just spelling it as I was thinking it. It's one solid hydrolic lifter, I was putting "solid" in there to not confuse him with hydraulic rollers. It was just easier to type "solid" than flat tappet.
