For the type of stuff I build, keyway lifters would be dramatic overkill. I've seen them mentioned on here numerous times but never really looked into them until you mentioned it...and damn

Re: Factory style roller lifters vs link bar style
I don't think weight of lifter plays much of a role in what you and I do.
I would be more concerned about valve weight,spring / retainer for application.
