Bar linked lifters

I am going to build an LS3 and wanted to use bar linked lifters. I am loong at the Cam Motion CXM-LS033111201. I was wondering if anyone has used them and how they are as far as quality or is there a better company that I should be looking at?

Sure is.
I would go with the Iskendarian or Isky lifters as they call them. 2076HYRT is the part number.
If you are revving up to 7500rpm these will handle it.
They are made by Johnson's to their specs.
Quality is superb and Isky have the best reputation out there for quality.

From the pic, those cam motion lifters appear to be repackaged 2116 Johnson’s, which are an excellent lifter.

I dont plan on spinning the motor that high. It will be used in a street car that may see the track 3-4 times a year.

Johnson 2116's are an excellent choice as they are very forgiving in terms of their range of preload.

Cheaper option is some GM Performance lifters.... do not get the Delphi version. Safe to 7000rpm all day long. If you have the $ then get the link bar ones as they are simply better quailty.
