I'm running stock lifters and stock rockers and my motor is quite as a church mouse. The stock lifters and the stock rocker ams are already roller bearing. Unless you increase you rocker arm ratio. Your wasteing your money, save it for your Fast setup.

I would get some new lifters and put them in if you have a decent amount of mileage on your car. No point in taking the heads back off for 130 bucks for some ls7 lifters. I seen a member selling their comp oem replacments for 100 right after I bought mine. Just keep your eyes peeled in the forsale section.
