Default converting to hydralic roller(never mind went to a soild roller)

i want to go with a hydralic roller cam....my friend has a complete set up..with a cam called a godzilla..with lifter dog bones(ties) and spider arms(retainers) but my block is not drilled for the retsainer...so can i just drill and tapped some holes for it..??? aslo is ther any other parts different than a roller set up....i have double springs on my heads..is that enough ? i know the push rods are different lenghts. than regular hydralic cam push rods...and last is it worth the time and money...and has anyone ever heard of a godzilla cam??thanks

IF you have a 5.0, then you already have a hydraulic roller cam, so why are you looking for one???

I don't think use a cam that I did not have a cam card on, also there is no way to know if your springs are good enough with knowing what the cam specs are and what the seat and open pressures on the springs. A cam is too important to just "guess" on, buy a new one, and get the matched springs and you will be good to go.
