I couldn't be happier with the Solid Roller that Dave Crower spec'd for the 302. 12:1.
Had to provide the Gear ratios, trans and diff, car weight, intended use, and flow numbers on the heads from .100 - .700. MOST IMPORTANT!!!!  EVERYONE tells me the lift is too radical, however the power never drops off, it isn't peaky, and is almost as easy to drive as a Honda.

It makes stupid power and will destroy the tires by rolling into the throttle in any gear while cruising. SO MUCH FUN...
Broad Torque which is designed to have 350 ft# by 3200 rpm. peaking at 475 shy of 5500

What's the lift?  I thought mine was kind of on the limit but it's been just fine.  Sounds and acts kinda like the one you have but it was a CC XS282S.

.636 gross lift...  UP QUICK and holds them open long and lets them down easy on the seats

Idles at 1000-1100 with 12-14" vacuum.
