Default Lifter recommendations

TSP 231/237 112 LSA and Harland Sharp 1.7's on the way. What lifters do I need. I heard people say you don't run comp R's with these rockers, others say yes. Can I run my stock ones? What do I really need?

If your stock one are in good shape and they aren't relativly old mileage wise, I'd keep them. If you want the baddest aftermarket lifter, get a set of Morel's. ($500)

What I'm I really going to see with different lifters. I have 60K on the car so I'm going to change em out. I don't need to have the best, but I want something durable as all the other parts going into the car are quality. Are Comp R's fine?

You can only use Comp Rs with adjustable rockers... .008-.010" preload...and they work great when installed properly.
