    running a G head can i install a roller cam

    i got my g head back.cause thats what came on the car 85 .now can i run a roller cam in it and will it work ok with t2 swap. the slider needs the slider worn so if i can run a roller cam might be able to pick on up for the price of the slider and i think they have a beter ilde ?

    The answer is, why not? Rollers work in any head as you don't need squirters like slider cams.

    You have to use the G head timing belt sprocket.

    Not sure, I like all my emission vent hose's hooked up.
