I managed to wind up with a set of each for my ERL (LS3) 434ci project and now I can't decide which set to run. Help me decide.

This is going to be primarily a street-driven combo. LPE GT19 cam/kit, LPE-ported LS7 heads, YellaTerra rockers... and once I determine the correct pushrod length, I'm going to order a set of Manton .120 wall 3/8 pushrods.
I ordered one set (both are "Lunati" Morels)... waited for a while. Ordered another set, hoping I'd get them sooner... both sets arrived within a week of each other. Awesome.
Thanks for any and all input.

5294 I believe are the high RPM model, tighter clearances for the internals of the lifter if I remember correctly. I would not run these over the 5206 especially in a real street car just for the fact that if they get even the slightest bit of crud/particles/dirt/trash in them the hydraulics will malfunction and you will have a collapsed/damaged lifter. However, if it is a race only deal that will always have very clean oil and you are turning some decent RPM with high spring pressures I would recommend the 5294.
