I'm still on the look-out for some Schubeck ceramic lifters and if I find a new set, I'll swap. Smiths is out of stock on them for a few weeks. They are tool steel as well and will allow you to run the higher spring pressures. For a 6500-ish rpm engine though, this is sufficient, especially with the lighter valves, titanium retainers, etc, etc.

And yes, I'm surprised he hasn't commented in here yet...
