Eric, have you used beehives yourself? I've found them to "go away" quickly, and the lack of a inner spring scares me.

Yes, on a friend's car. 377" (std bore 383), AFR 195 heads, Comp HR blower cam. F1R Procharger at 13psi. No more valve float at 5800 RPM with the beehives.

Not sure how long they will last, I'll watch them closely though. Thanks for the heads up.

I wouldn't be afraid to run a solid roller on the street at all, I ran a Herbert 638/657 lift roller in my 427 for a bunch of street miles (not a daily driver, a weekend toy), checked them every month or two, seldom had to adjust anything and if I did, it was only slight. I did run stainless roller rockers, triple springs, Bo Laws .100 long pushrods and girdles too though. Twisted it over 8000 a bunch of times with no float and no breakeage.
