Money being no option, go Morel. If your budgeting, go with the GM.Cadillac race lifter.

Morel, the offshore boating guys use these a lot and there is a reason for that. They are stout pieces and you won't have oiling issues with the smaller base circle. They have better internal parts as well from what I have read. With the cost of motors, cams, etc. and the potential consequences of problems I think it is well worth a couple of hundred extra bucks for a good lifter.
