Hi Brando, all,

Not normally. Maybe someone else will explain more. I know James can.
Elgin website shows SS-3132 as a performance set. In your application, it will not perform better that any other double rolller.
Website also tells me they manufacture mostly OEM and OEM replacement products. I was familiar with them but haven't use their products. My confusion was cause by the same name being used by them and the cam grinder.
This machine shop has used
ELGIN cams in some of their high end racing engines. They also do my machine work.
Not sure about the words dampner or dampener.
There is a harmonic damper, (balancer) that is on the crank, adjacent to the chain. There are dampers used with valve springs to control harmonics. The dampers used in suspensions are called shock absorbers, or struts.
Just saw your last post. I forgot your '87 is a big car and it's not driven from the wrong end.
Regards, Norm
