With the new HLT's from Morel you can now have the maintenance of hyd and the power and sound of solid.

Hey Chris...

Care to elaborate on that? Are we referring to a new product or the Morel's that have been on the market for awhile now....

Hope all is well...

Tony,
All is good, I will have an answer for Rick next week. The Morel HLT ( Hyd. Limited Travels) are hyd that you set at zero lash. The plunger assembly is limited to .025" travel. Throttle response is greatly improved over a hyd roller, the sound note of engine is deeper and they are worth a few HP's. Cost is around $525 a set.

hydrolic lifters take up room for valve terane lash and you dont have to adjudst them as much. they will also cut down on some of the sewing machine noise if you put a bigger cam in. all and all i would say hydrolic is better
