It seems like pretty much all the major cam grinders list roller-retrofit kits for non-roller engines. Crane, Comp Cams, Lunati etc all list such kits. Stock Ford roller hydraulis fit the Cleveland block fine except they are too tall and are unsupported as a result. Also realize that you cannot take a roller cam designed for a lg. diameter roller wheel and use a smaller diameter roller wheel on it (as the shrouded wheel rollers are), and expect to get performance or durability out of the mix. Cams are ground with a particular diameter roller wheel in mind. Changing that changes a whole bunch of other things, mostly bad. So as I always say, call the cam grinders tech line or e-mail them with your specific questions. Be ready to answer a pageful of questions on your motor & your expectations.
