Default Which Lifters

I am about to do a head swap on my Firehawk. While the heads are off I will replace the lifters. Which OEM replacement lifters do I need to get.

Thanks

The LS7 lifters are the same lifters that are in the LS1, LS2, LS6, LT1, and pretty much every small block since the late 80's.

If money isn't an issue go with morels. If you are on a budget go with Comp OEM replacements.
