I am sure that if circumstances(technology, costs, etc) had allowed Chevrolet to run roller cams in the engines of the 60's they would have - they sure ran them beginning in 1987 when they had the opportunity.

I doubt that Chevrolet / Pratt & Miller /K-tech were seeking opinions when they went to Crower Cams and specifically Dave Crower to design the cams for the C5R and C6R racing programs.

That being said... My opinion is that anyone building an engine call the professionals at CROWER CAMS or the cam manufacturer of your choosing and have them spec the cam for your application.
