So what effect if any would there be on a 1993 build chrysler hydraulic lifter on a 383 big block. I assume new valve springs would be needed. Didn't change the rockers, still original as delivered.

Thanks

Can't see why new springs would be needed, better have adjustable rockers though. I thinking solids are lighter than hyd. anyway. Also a lot cheaper.
