I will be having a converter built for this truck. It needs a lot of low and mid range grunt to get this tank moving. Looking to run a hydraulic roller. Any suggestions? Also ultimately the intake will be a dart shp dual plane or dart single plane depending on the camshaft rpm range.
I think you should scrap the hydraulic plan and go with this solid

Comp Cams 12-900-9

For the situation you described I would go with the dual plane intake and add a 1" open spacer

Dont forget to run one of those composite distributor gears if you use this cam.
