my plan was to rev my motor to about 7k, got katech rodbolts, clevite bearings and more,

my question is, how "fast" can the stock lifters take? do they handle 7k?

i was thinkin about the GM performace parts lifters, but i could well use the 217$ in something else if i dont have to use them,

What cam will you be using?

Why the 7K rpm magic number? If your cam requires that rpm for max power then do it right and buy some Cadillac racing liftes or Morel's. A reliable valvetrain setup is needed for constant 7K rpm shifts. Don't skimp as it will cost you much more in the long run.

my cam is patriot 226/226 585 112.

the 7k is not the magic number.. i just want to rev it a little higher than standart,

Reving that high with that cam will have opposite, like negative effect on your performance 6600 max or so to keep you in the powerband. That cam peaks like 6100>6200

thats excatly what i was looking for, thanks man, always bulletproof answers from you,

i think this cam is to small, and im goin to drive/race it this sumer and se if i like it, i got fast90/90 combo, real rod bolts headstuds and more if i want a bigger cam, so i was thikin about taking some good lifters to,
