Default Solid rollers in a hyd roller block

Having a discussion with another forum member (bobs77vette) about this. Does anyone make a solid roller that will work in a 86 or newer block that works with the spider. Most solid rollers I have seen have the locking bar style roller.

seems like all the performance equipment is geared mainly for the pre 86 market

I would not say that. Look at all the stuff already out for the LS1 motors. There is plenty of performance crank rods and pistons for the roller, 1 piece rear seal blocks. The solid rollers with the link bars would most likely fit the roller blocks, maybe the spiders will just not hold a solid roller tight enough at high rpm. Anyone else with knowledge on this?
