Default Lifter question.

I'm thinking about replacing the lifters on my car when doing the LT4 hot cam. I found these lifters but I'm not sure if they will work. They are hydraulic roller lifters from GM part number 5234625. Does anyone know if those would work?

the GM performance parts catalog list part #17120735 as the lifters used in all the HO engines. these lifters use a higher checkball spring preload. :chevy

I used comp cams pro magnum lifters on mine. Word is though that you can't get these anymore as the company that made them for comp went out of business. Not sure why though, they seem to be great lifters, they were made specifically for higher RPM's.
