I recommend going roller. It's too easy with today's oils to wipe the cam lobes, even if you do everything right. Ask me how I know. Link bar rollers or a dog bone conversion with a small base circle cam - either works. A little more expensive than the flat tappet up front but it's a lot cheaper than a rebuild.
