Thanks for the advice guys. I was using the Mobile 1 15W-50 in my Mach 1 when it chewed up the last cam. Before that I had been running Shell Rotella which probably was one of the last to lose the zinc, but that chewed up my first cam. Maybe since the cam in my little HiPo has been in there a while and certainly is well broken in, it may just last if I use the oil with the ZDDP still in it. One thing is sure, its much easier pulling and going through a 289 than it is a 428.
Should I need to do a full rebuild on the little terrier engine (We have a Jack Russell and the HiPo reminds me of her, doesn't know she's not big), then I'll reconsider a roller.
Thanks again.

Over the next couple of weeks I'm going to pull the engine out of my K-code coupe to accomplish two things, fix the leaking rear main and detail the engine compartment. While I have the engine out, I was considering changing the cam from flat tappets to rollers due mainly to the quality of oil we have now. My 428 SCJ Mach 1 went through two cams before I changed it to roller and have been quite satisfied with the change. Any recommendations on a roller for my street driven, basically stock HiPo?

No I have not. I'll get some and try it. Thanks

One of the ponies in my stable is a '95GT Convertible with a white top. What do you guys recommend to clean the top? I've tried a bunch of stuff and cannot get top to look white and not light gray.<img src=images/icon_smile_question.gif border=0 align=middle>

Very nice. A couple of questions for you, Are the headers and trans painted with anything, is that lifting plate bolted to the inlet with the carb studs? as I have to make one soon and wondered if the carb studs would take the weight of an engine and trans.
Thanks
Mark

My '05 is a crewcab 4x4 automatic and I have had no prob;ems. It is primarily used to pull a large horse trailer, stock trailer, and car trailer. It pulls just fine. The early 6.0's were problematic. As with any diesel its critical to stay on top of the maintenance.
