Does anyone think its worth the extra 500 bucks to use roller valvetrain vs standard flat tappet and stamped steel rockers in a street small block chevy?

Yeah, but all one piece rear seal blocks are not necessarily roller cam blocks. Early ones ( 87,88...) still had flat tappet cams.
I did an intake manifold gasket (Dexcool) on a 98 Suburban 5.7 that did not have a roller cam.Quote:
correct. some of the trucks still used the flat tappet cams.

No. The owner is a friend of my Boss and had not had any engine work done till I did the intake gaskets. He bought the truck new.Quote:
Wow, a 98? My 98 Yukon has a roller cam. Maybe the engine in that Suburban was replaced?
