   Didn't know the old LA's were different like that. Hmmm,
so, has anyone actually seen a solid roller lifter specifically
for a Magnum motor? Anyone have the stock lifter specs?

   I already have some $$$$ in the heads so would rather stick
with those than go to some LA heads.

   Thanks again for all the help
