Some get lucky with LS7's others don't. Morels are a good budget friendly option. I have had good luck with them in the past. Johnson's are obviously the best.
The reason why LS7 lifters are popular because they make setting up the valvetrain easier since the window for proper lifter preload is wider. With lifters like Johnson, the window is much narrower and in some cases custom push rod lengths are needed to get into the proper preload range.
