Reply to "Rev kit / Valve float"

Frode,

The good hydraulic roller lifters, made by both Crane and Comp Cams, are tied together in pairs by flat link bars.

The Ford style hydraulic roller lifters have flats machined on two sides, and are oriented & retained by a "dog bone & spyder" assembly. These Ford style lifters do not have the same rpm capability as the better link bar style.

Comp Cams sells both types of lifter. You have never said which type you have. If you have the Ford style lifter, you will not attain much more rpm than what you have already achieved.

Why does your motor need a rev kit, when every other Ford motor running a hydraulic roller cam gets by without one?

the camshaft lobe profiles of a hydraulic roller cam are not aggressive enough to warrant a rev kit.

Good luck.
