I am swapping shortblocks soon and talking with my cam grinder, researching here and else where, Morels seem to be exactly what I need to run. I searched and havent found anyone reporting issues with them so thought maybe I'd ask to make sure, fitment, pre-load (nothing like Comp Rs from my research), bleedout, or just an excellent drop in replacement?
Thanks
Charlie

I just received more info on a back to back test of the Morels vs the popular hydraulic roller lifters.
Pretty amazing!
Sometime very soon I'll take the info from the fax and do a text file for review but suffice to say a lot more rpm potential before float and HP loss...
Told y'all these things rock!

Why are the Morel lifters better than the Comp R's? I'm curious cause I just baught a set of Comp R's. I went with the Comp lifters because that is what AFR recommended when you go with the 8019 spring upgrade.
