Just received the T&D roller system, it answered all my questions about rocker arm geometry. With the Chevy Scorpions the action across the valve was all over the place, T&D has their act together. Should be able to rip into engine in a couple of weeks and hopfully report on the quiet engine.

lifter dimensions needed
Hey guys... trying to track down a oil pressure issue on my 109.....I am running a factory hydraulic roller lifter... and want to investigate dimensional differences of the location and width of the oilband on aftermarket lifters vs the stock hyd roller lifters.
So that I don't dilute this sticky anymore than I already have.... I started a new thread with a picture of a lifter marked up with the dimensions I need.
I am particularly interested in the Comp 885 lifter and the new Morrel lifters.
Any help is appreciated.

Well, my news isn't what I'd hoped for. After installing the Morels, I don't notice any difference in noise level and I still have kr.

That's a first.
Is this noise coming from one side, or all over? On first start up, mine were a bit noisey too. As I put a few miles on them they got quieter. What did you set the preloads at? On my car, with the hood open, you can't hear them at all while sitting in the car, or standing in front of the engine. If you lean out over the side of the engine, with the hood up, you can hear them a little. I'm running 10 w 30 Mobil 1 full syn oil, with a bottle of Lucas oil zinc-plus oil additive.
Anyone else?

The whole valvetrain is pretty noisy to me. But I've never had a roller cam before so I don't know if it's normal. There does seem to be a tapping noise coming from the passenger side which is why I thought I had a bad lifter. Preload is .025.
Some lifters REQUIRE a certain amount of preload. You should check with your supplier/manufacturer to be sure.

Welcome to the wonderfull world of roller cams.
Cracked header or gasket?
Recheck preloads?
Got a stethascope?

Morel lifters
In post 159 it states that TA is reccommending the TA V1413 for stage motors. Why is this? I have a off center stage II motor (with clicky comps) and want to fix the problem but don't know why I wouldn't be able to use the V1412 lifters. Can someone shed some light on this for me. Thank you.

Don't some of the stage motors (maybe on center?) have offset lifters?

.025" as per Morel for iron block to iron head. This will be half a turn for those of us running T@D rockers.
For more details see post #81 on page 3 of this thread.

I ordered my lifters from TA over a weak ago and they still are back order.
How long are they on back order, when do they expect them in?

Morel lifters
I ordered a set yesturday. I called to see when they were coming in and I was told that they are expecting around 25 sets soon but they already had orders for around 15 sets. They said that those that placed orders for them will be filled first but they won't charge your card until they ship to you. Price is $290 + shipping. If you want a set, order them and give a credit card #.
