Default Lunati Link bar (street) vs Comp R (850-16) vs Howard Cams Link Bar (Street)

Wanted to get some opinions, experiences, recommendations. About to pull the trigger on this heads cam package and not sure what lifters to go with. I was thinking about Lunati / Howards, but the vendor suggested Comp R. Other than the obvious link bar differences I'd like to hear any thing I might should consider.

I believe the Comp 850 pieces are not their "R" units, which are part# 875...but double check w/ Comp on this. For LS engines I use and recommend link-bar replacements, but understand that you give up easy future cam swaps in the process.

I have johnson linkbars and they are beautiful.. haven't fired it yet, but if you're buying internal engine components on sex appeal, these have that. They also fit well, which I recommend you verify no matter what you get.
