Crower rollers

Has anyone run crower mechanical rollers in their trucks? If so let me know your outcome. Thank you very much for your time

I think Jason AKA HotRodTractor has run mechanical roller before but did not think they were crowers though.

I have looked into harland sharp and wipeout too but i was going through the crower website last night and i saw that they also offer them for the 7.3 for a fairly reasonable price. Just wanted to know if anyone has run them

Why would you want to run solid lifters have to adjust your valves?

Its a headache you don't need. Figure out what your boost pressure is going to be. Cam? which valve springs? Its not as simple as picking parts out of a catalog.

I ran solid roller lifters and roller rockers with a custom high pressure valve spring setup - I would do something similar again for a competition motor. It takes a little machine work but you can make some very nice high quality solid lifter components from other engines fit into the 7.3 block - the popular choice right now by the mechanical crowd is a particular lifter built by Jesel for what ever reason - probably one guy did it and they all copied. I am not sure that I would run the Harland Sharp rockers again (WOE) - but I would find/source some that I would feel comfortable running. When converting over to mechanical you have a TON more room to work with... I would probably look at some shaft mounted rockers instead of individual pedestal mounted ones.

Good luck and get ready to fab and make fit pretty much everything.
