Hey guys we got the bottom end squared away on our 408 (got it to .002 tolerance on the main bearings with -.001 bearings) and are now moving to the lifters/prs/timing chain. We have ls2 trays we plan on running and thought about the Brian tooley $199 lifters. Will these hold up? Also have BTR dual .660 springs with steel locks/retainers..and what push rods? We want the thickest available. And will the katech c5r timing chain stand up to over 20 pounds and not break? Any suggestions?

 

Id go morel link bar lifters and 3/8 pushrods maybe

 

i second this ^ and i'd make the valve train as light as possible
