Hey guys, I'm trying to decide what lifters to run. They'll be going in a 347 with a .579 lift cam. It'll be a daily driven weekend racer that should never see over 6300 rpms. Hoping for 380-400 at the wheels. What are you guys running? Are the stock rollers ok for my purposes? Thanks

Yes but for 350 u can't go wrong with lunatis, manufactured by morel. Ed Curtis has player price on them

Is it really worth it though. My machinist suggest that for my purpose the stock ones should be more than adequate. Any other opinions?

Cliff Sherman can mod your stock lifters. I run them in my car and have had zero issues to 7000 RPM.

I also have the sherman lifters. Work well.

Thanks for the input guys. How does one modify the stock one?

I sent you a PM.

Cliff does tons of these for us Stock Eliminator racers. I sent him several sets and he sent them back ready to rock.
