I have a 452 stroker I just bought and it has these lifters in it it'sall new stuff was wondering if theycan be cchange . After block has been cut for them
 
You cannot simply change to regular lifters from mushroom lifters. You have to change the camshaft too, because it is ground to a different, more aggressive ramp rate for the mushroom lifters.

That was the whole point. The mushroom cam was the forerunner of the roller. Much more aggressive ramps. So much so that more lifter face was needed to facilitate proper lifter to lobe contact.
 
Yes, in effect, I think you answered your own question. Is the mushroom cam and lifter set new and never run?
 

I have a local friend who would be interested in that. If you want to sell it, give me a PM.
