John what are your thoughts on lifter diameter and a taller lifter? Have you used or know of anyone using 2.0-1 rocker ratio's?

Yes , many at 2.0-1 , I am at 1.9. Rocker ratio is your friend and then it becomes your enemy. The valve acceleration is the thing you're after but that's the same thing that can send the system out of control. Spintron is the answer for the seriously trying.

I don't like a tall lifter, it puts more ang in the push rod. .937 key way is the only way to go IMO.
