Now available from Morel is the Perfect Roller lifter. . .runs on a hyd roller or a SOLID roller lobe profile. After months of spintron testing, live engine testing, and field testing a new lifter is available to the enthusist. Morel has taken its technology in materials and body design of solid roller lifters and built the ultimate hyd roller. This lifter features an upgraded body, roller, and axle. The stainless tie bar is connected to a 3 button system to prevent binding and premature failure. The valving system has been tweaked to prevent valve float to a tested 7300 rpm. Last but not least the bodies are REM finished. Iin back to back testing in a BBC application this lifter proved to make 34 more HP over a std hyd roller lifter and an increase in additional rpm when used on the same cam profile.
The lifters when used on solid roller cams do have their limits. Spring pressures should be a max of 220# on the seat and 550# open pressure.
This new generation of lifter is recommened for severe street strip use and extended marine applications. You can now have you Solid roller and no lash adjustment.....
Hey Dean, you haven't been doing a little testing for Ed Morel have ya?

Chris is right...it sounds like a great lifter design! As a matter of fact RMBuilder/Bob Madara of Marine Kinetics spoke to me about 6 months ago about these lifters and has recieved a developement set for testing and evaluation and they are now available to distributors for commercial sale at this time.
I have been following Bob on this project since he first spoke with me about these lifters. His tests have shown 225lbs on the seat and 550lbs over the nose on an extremely aggresive CNC'd HYDRAULIC roller cam. So far they have performed as expected---which I thought was pretty impressive. I have ordered a couple of sets for my next refresh.
If you have any questions about the performance of the lifter give Bob Marada a call at 585-654-8583.

I was speaking to Madara last week about cams and he was very excitedly telling me about his experiences with these lifters. What really got my attention was the scant difference in price between the standard Morel and this lifter. No one in their right mind would try and save that pocket change.
