The Shubeck/Smith Machine is the best hydraulic lifter for radical lobes/rpm. They have a ceramic puck and can be used on many cams without break in. They are around 1,000 bucks a set but buy only once. I run 200 seat and 425+ over the nose at 7000+. Be vigilant on checking springs as if they get weak you can bounce the lifter and the ceramic has been known to shatter making a real mess. I have been using these for a long time without issue but am fanatical about checking things over.
