Btr slow leakdown rate lifters Have they discontinued the Brian tooley racing slow leakdown rate lifters? I looked on the website and couldn't find them. If so what lifters are recommended?

Yes, we have discontinued the Slow Leakdown Rate lifters. Even though we had less issues with our SLR lifters than we do with the Morel lifters, I'm still not comfortable selling something that may not be 100%.
Selling Slow Leakdown Rate lifters without a test stand to actually test every one is like selling springs without having a spring tester. It's actually worse since springs will very far less than lifters will. Very minute differences in plunger to lifter bore fitment can make for huge changes in actual leak down rate.
We do have an alternative to the lifters that we offered, we now have the Johnson Slow Leakdown Rate lifters. These are the same exact lifters being used in the COPO Camaro.

We stand behind what we sell, so don't worry, we haven't had a single failure. We just don't feel like the leak down rate is consistent enough.
99% don't have a issue, but the 1% is too high of an issue rate for me. Compare that to the almost 20% issue rate we have on Morel 5206 lifters for comparison sake...

Id recommend the 5315 morels for just a drop in, which we have on a great deal right now, or if you want to step up to the tie bars, the morel streets are a great option.
