Yes, those are worth selling.
Price? $500 for the pair, minimum. The seat tracks and foam look to be intact and that absolutely matters.
Those are 1973-76 Duster/Dart/Dart Sport but not Valiant since the Valiant line was far more likely to be bench seat equipped.
Since I haven't done this before and haven't been around anyone that has, everything that is different compared to a flat tappet swap is foreign to me. I wondered how the cam end play was measured and it wasn't until I saw a video with a dial indicator mounted in the lifter valley that it made...

Is safe to assume that the camshaft does not make contact with the plug ever?
I could do a mock up tomorrow with stuff that I have out in the shop but this is something that I've never heard anyone discuss.

Thanks guys.
This is new to me. I read that the Torrington bearing for the cam sprocket was recommended but I wanted to make sure.
Regarding the cam button….010 sure isn’t much. I’m guessing that you have to account for the thickness of the timing cover gasket when measuring?
Hello,
I am slowly coming around to making the switch to a roller cam for my 440/495. I thought in my travels here and there that these require a special timing set where the cam sprocket has a Torrington bearing. Is that true?
They still used the same house and driveway that the Road Runner was in.
Another thing about that new ad that I noticed is FEWER white people in it, as if only people of color got fat and wanted a shortcut to being in better shape.
