Default Morrell lifters opinions

Is there anyone using these lifters hydraulic roller cam? Also looking for opinions if the huge cost diffrence is worth it. I want to do this correct the first time and if it means spending a few hundred extra so be it. Thank.

Cant go wrong with the morel's, although my experience with them is somewhat limited and only with the solid version.

Billet body, better steel, better steel in the roller, better bearings and tighter tolerances. Body is taller so that the smaller base circle with aftermarket cams won't compromise oiling. Do you need to spend the extra, that's your call but the lifter is manufactured from superior materials and is a better design for aftermarket cams.

Definitely one of the best lifters out there. I have been running them for over 2 years now in my daily driven 383 stroker vette.
