Default Solid Roller Lifters
Hey All,
Anyone here use Morel roller lifters? Seem to have a great rep and was curious if anyone here has used them.

Thanks,

-joe

Yes, I have used a set. They were Lanati brand lifters. Didn't have any issues with them in a mild 455. Cam was the Stump Puller cam 230 236 @.050.

Yes, I have used many sets over the years with no issues, and still do. Hydraulic and Solid roller, Street or Race, regardless of brand. They are a very good lifter.

I run Crower solid rollers on a Comp hyd roller cam and set the lash at .006. Some folks use .005. Set cold.

Guys,
Thanks for the input. I like the fact that their solid rollers use a bushing and not needle bearings since my new build will see some street use with a solid roller cam.
