I'm thinking of going to the 8019. I have Morel lifters. Any issues with the two?

Cam is a 227/231 571/575 custom Ed Curtis cam. Put out 432hp 405tq.

We saw a little valve float after 6600rpm which is why I was considering these springs.
Our new 8019's will work great and I bet will clean up the little valve float you are experiencing @ 6600+. The Morel lifters pose no problems and would actually be recommended with the additional seat and open pressure the 8019's generate.

Hope this helps you out (Sorry for the delay....just got back from SEMA obviously).

Tony,

Been going over you downloadable option sheet on the heads. How would the lightweight valves that you offer as replacements hold up as daily drivers as well? Are these Ferrea valves and are there any downsides to the lightweight valve option?

Thanks
