I just installed a set of Morel lifters in a friends gen6 540. They seem to be a quality piece. I found the Morels to be 0.050" inch taller than the stock lifters. I see no sign of the Morels having an internal oil passage to feed the axel like some of the solid roller lifters.
Does anyone know the recommended preload setting for the Morels?
I have heard that Morel no longer sells lifters under the Morel name only with cam company names such as Cam Motion, Howards, etc.
Is this true?
One other question for more experienced engine builders. How do you pump up the Hyd lifters to check pushrod length?
