Heard they were no good. Either get the ls7 or morel lifters. Ls7 are cheap

We have both ls7s and morel 5315s for the best price. Check out the thread here

https://ls1tech.com/forums/sponsor-group-purchases/1727033-morel-5315-ls7-lifters-cospeed-pushrods-lunati-valve-spring-kits-group-purchase-o.html

recommended rpm range is 6500 with dual springs like the lunatis in the thread with the morels. for more aggressive cam setups id def recommend the morel drop in 5315s. easy on the budget and good quality internals.

For quite a bit less money you could have the proven 5315 morels. Just an observation.
