A week or so back I posted about a friends 289 5 bolt motor

The engine # C40E-6015C and this # on top 3K8

He is wondering if he can use the roller cam/follower kits on this block, or
if you have to modify it to mount them? Is anyone running a 289 5 bolt with
a roller setup? If so what type and did you have to do any mods?

I am using that setup. Comp Cams hydraulic roller lifters with "dogbone" type lifter retainers. Machine shop simply had to machine threads into lifter valley to bolt the retainers down. Seems like a pretty routine procedure. Machine shop preferred dogbone retainers rather than the linked pair type of lifters. Works fine.

I use drop in roller lifters in a 260. No problems.

Shouldn't think it would be in a 289. Make sure you get the ones with the tie bars.

Michael,

There is only one thing you have to watch for with the dog bones and spider
arrangement. That is to be sure that the spider bolts in the valley are not
so long as to interfere with the cam shaft bushings. Most machine shops
should know how deep to make the holes, but it never hurts to be sure.

I have some extra dog bones and extra spiders in case your friend wants me
to mail some to him. They are light enough that the postage would be
unimportant.

I also have extra roller lifters, but cannot vouch for the condition though
I know some people disassemble and clean them. Those are heavier so I would
want to be reimbursed for postage if he wants a set.

HTH,
A. C. Tynes
