Question MOREL LIFTERS ... high rpm only?! ---

I have been reading that the COMP R's are really only designed for TRACK USE ONLY , not for a Daily Driver and that is where most of the problems are coming from. I am wondering....since the Comp R's are a HIGH RPM LIFTER like the MORELS are ..... are the MORELS not good for a daily driver (noisy,reliability at low rpms, ect)?!

I am going to use my LE2 setup for daily driving ... so should I go with the comp 850's and call it a day? The stockers have too many miles....I dont want to risk reusing them. They are good enough for my 1.6 rr's, beehives, trickflow pushrods, and a cam in the mid to high .500 lift?! Thanks ---

I'm using OEM GM's, put them in new with the cam. I've got .597/.585 lift.
No issues at all. The Comp R's are the ones people have been having problems with, there's a "Sticky" on them at the top of the forum.

Depends on your spring pressure, if you are not going crazy with that and rocker arm ratio and didn't spin a bearing in the motor the stockers will work fine.

Arent all the spring pressures on the le2 setups the same , or does he use different pressures for different le2 cams?! They are the beehives Lloyd put in , and I am using 1.6rr's. I guess the 850's are where its at since the stockers should be fine ---

Yeah if you need new ones then the 850's but if you have stockers stick with those. We designed the LE2 setup to work fine with those lifters.
