What rpms do you plan to run?

My Comp lifters are holding 867rwhp and 7200 rpms. We'll see if they like 7500 rpms in 2007. If I have any problems I will go with the Morels.

I'm not sure. My old max effort cam only setup spun 7200 rpms, so I would guess somewhere around there, maybe a little more.

I know that they were put in race Caddys, but as you mentioned, they did have a lightweight rotating assembly/valvetrain which makes a big difference. I plan on running right around the same rpm as I did with my old setup. Really, what I was looking for was people who are actually using the GMPP race lifters so that they can vouch for them. I already know the Morels are proven.
like i said i am running the gmpp lifters, and i spin it to 7200rpm

well in that case i would definitely go with the morals because you are going to need a fair amount of spring pressure to control that big valve at high rpm, and the moral are meant to handle that
