I would suggest though that if you decide to buy the Compcam camshaft DO NOT buy it as a kit.
The lifters that CompCams supplies have the large Chevy oiling hole in the lifters.
The Ford Cleveland with solid lifters REQUIRES a smaller oiling hole to maintain pressure to the main bearings.
Those lifters are "Johnson" lifters. Ask George Pence for the part number for those. I don't remember the number. He may have it listed in the "Engine Sticky"?
Also if you plan on reving the engine regularly over 7,000 rpm it would be a VERY IMPORTANT thing to install lifter bushings in the block.
If you stay under 7,000 the lifters bushings are pretty much optional.
Also, you are going to need a much heavier balancer than the stock 4v unit that came stock in a Pantera.
