I am with Comp R's, same thing you use the stock lifter version for Comp R's as well because its "STOCK DESIGN"
Works great!
Once my outer valve spring broke and the first thing I though was thank God for the Rev kit keeping the lifter on the cam.

I didn't drive yet.. (assembly didn't finish yet) Cam Motion suggested this cam specs.. I think its too hard for a street/strip drivable car ,but they don't like this.. We will see (its 113 lsa >> nitrous friendly)

I should feel nitrous before I die thats why I get a nitrous friendly camshaft.. Also 110 lsa make more power than 113 lsa right? This difference can be ~~hp??

If you go with the 987 then you better get the rev kit to help in the upper RPMs where those springs may not prevent valve float. You should take a look at the LS1 beehive springs.
