Post subject:  opinions on tappets

I figure this doesn't come up too often, but since I am rebuilding the whole baby soon, does anyone have a brand of mechanical tappets they recomend?

build up:

1975 225 block
mucho head work (huge valves, port and polish, shaved .090)
dual roller chain
390 holley
11 to 1 compression
clifford intake and headers
and eventually the GM HEI conversion.

I will most likely need to have custom pushrods, so if anyone has a particular brand they recomend for them let me know that also if you could.

-thanks.....

I got a new set from advance auto cost $4 and change a lifter - for about $80 total, had no problems - I think they are sealed power brand.

IIRC, there is only one company that makes lifters anymore anyway. Everyone else just has their name put on them. :shock:
