PLease read the captions and look at the picture as it describes in generic form the differences by looking at the cam. note there is type above and below picture. The type below the picture is most impotant, I hope this helps you out some.
1, After break in, a flat tappet cam is married to its lifters. You cannot move lifters between different bores, and you cannot use those lifters on a different cam. The lifters either stay with that lobe, or get thrown out, period.
2, The following picture shows a flat tappet camshaft in the front, and a roller camshaft in the rear.Last edited by mooneye777; 10-23-2008 at 02:11 PM.
