LS7 lifters are the new replacement for the LS1 lifters. There is no need to change anything else, just that simple.

Not sure what you are doing, Morel is the best lifter out there for the LS1.

It is not absolutely necessary, but installing fresh lifter trays anytime the heads are off is a good idea.
