From what I have seen, everyone swears by the Morels...that's what I would get if I had the money.

I got Comp Endurex in mine with a bigger cam than yours. 6000 street miles, God knows how many passes, at least 50 with no problems.

I bought mine through Bauer Racing engines, but you can also buy them through Summit.

The key to making them live is 30+lbs of oil pressure at idle hot. And run a good oil. I run Shell Rotella.

Don't buy Crane lifters. Crane lifters have failed many times in SR applications when used within Crane's "published" operating parameters.

The best choices for a LT1 solid roller street car are: Isky "Red Zone", Crower "HIPO", or the Comp EndureX.

Trust me, you do not want to go cheap on a solid roller lifter. And, do yourself a favor and only listen to the people that actually have run solid roller setups. There is alot of bad information out there.
