are these the ones that were in chevy hi performace a couple months ago? I think they were only for bbc's? Interesting if you wanted to run a solid roller on the street for a while though.

Haven't used their rollers, however their flat tappet lifters are light and don't require breakin. Generally considered top draw, although expensive at around $1000/set.

Their lighter weight may help the valve train live longer and require less spring. Their lack of needle bearings may increase reliablity in high performance applications.

Since you are going solid presumably you are planning on either high engine speeds and/or a high lift, aggressive profile cam.
