Solid version will go .690" with the stock lifter retainers or unlimited with a link bar lifter.

How are the link bars set-up for smaller base circle cams on the hydraulic LS1 lifters? Do you offer a tie-bar .300" taller hydraulic version for the smaller base circle on the LS blocks?

Carl,
Morels are a taller body then the OEM as is. They worked with one of the cam core suppliers when developing this lifter for the LS1 market. At the time their were 6 base circles available for the LS1 cam market.

Let me see what I can find out about the smallest base circle LS1 core ussed with the link bar.

I would appreciate it if you checked on the base circles. That would be a huge help as we're always running into this clearance issue on hydraulic link-bar lifters.

This will be very interesting. Going with a XFI286R113 comp cam this winter, these would be PERFECT for it in my little 346

Question

So you can run these lifters with stock/stock style non adjustable rocker arms and a solid roller profile cam. Provided that you have the correct length pushrod. Is this correct?

Anyone have a set of these yet. I ended up buying a set of Jesel solid lifters a while ago, but I forgot these were out.

Yes, you have to first setup your valve train geometry to get the correct wipe pattern. Then you'll use an adjustable pusrod length checker to find out what size pushrods you need taking into account the valve lash.
