Default ?

i take it that your cam and lifters you have now are a mild hydraluic set ? you run matching lifter's with the cam as a set .if the set has been run ,you do not want to change them because there has been a wear pattern established .
you should only replace as a set because it could wipe out the cam .

yes, roller tip rockers are made and can be used. specify that you are using hydraulic non roller cam, you just want roller tip rockers to use.
