only thing I ever get from wally world is candy in bulk (thats made in the U.S.) perscriptions filled, and GM high tech.

Thoes lifters do look too good to put in a motor. The fact that they arent sensitive to preload like the Comp R's is enough reason to buy them, because of ease of installation.

Is an adjustable rocker recommended with the Morel hydraulic?

I found that the cup was just a scooch higher on the solid Morels than the Cranes. Just out of adjustment on my T&D's... new pushrods on the way.

But they solved my low oil pressure problem. That's a good thing. Went from less than 20 psi cold idle to about 65 with no other changes.

Camaroholic,
Glad they worked out for you. I've know Ed Morel for some years now and he won't make a bad part. He e-mailed me a list of new part numbers the other day and they have coverage on just about everything now. The cam companies that are selling them are very very happy.

hey guys sorry to bring up a real old post but i was doing some research and i have the same question that was asked above, Do you have to have an adjustable rocker arm. I'm thinking about harland sharp or yella terra both non-adjustable. Do the morrel handle lift better the gmpp cts-vr lifters, like .609 lift?

Thanks!

Yes, they will handle lift better and higher spring loads better. Pre-load is 0.030" - 0.050" so you don't need adjustable rockers. I plan to order custom pushrods from Terry Manton, who makes them to order and will basically make any length you want. He also has 11/32" OD pushrods, which are much stiffer and "may" fit in the heads without further machine work. Haven't confirmed that yet though.
