By looking at his info, it seems he has an EF2 XR8. That would mean it's a pushrod engine.

yaggy, E-series/AU windsors are roller blocks (they have roller cams which bump roller lifters)

EFI 5Ls are Hydraulic rollers.
The rockers are activated by pushrods, but the lifters are rollers! I wouldn't even bother with a cam swap if you still have stock (E7TE) heads and manifold. |
