The stories that you have heard about roller lifters is true when it comes to solid rollers but is not the case with hydraulic rollers. The factory uses hydraulic rollers now in about every new car out there and puts 200,000 miles on them. I do not like the flat tappet stuff because we have had several people loose lobes. We use the hydraulic roller stuff on about all of our street engines and probably have 100 FE engine out there with them.
On the heads I would just go with our Edelbrock stage 2 heads for best performance. Just let us know how we can help with your needs. Thanks, Keith Craft
