Advice on my "stock" 340 build

as long as it jumps up in RPMs fast and stays there long enough to make the power.

so i asked my engine rebuilder about what lifters he will use on my 340, he replied johnson hy-lift... do you guys think thats a good choice or should i place a wanted ad for some used 340 lifters and have them re-surfaced?
my engine guy said hes never had a problem with them....

hy-lifts are great. OEM replacement melling lifters work great too. never had a problem with them. or have a set refaced.

whatever floats your goat.

Be sure to use a good oiling system, for your 340.
A High Volume Melling pump, Wix oil filter, factory windage tray ( if using a stock pan)... and if so, make sure it is baffled.
