You can use standard followers. As long as they are in good condition and not worn.

some designs are better than others ;)

all will do your job, unless your after the ultimate, which in that case means measuring about 30 for geometry on the actual valve you are for using it and skimming cam carrier etc to suit what you want...

for a fast road setup you simply dont need to, i do this for the competion engines, as it makes the difference of 3hp on a typical tarmac engine and safe guards the valvetrain from wiping off the end of the follower which can happen on refprofile cams etc

so ide be better off getting new standard followers?

see you lot havechanged cams before?
