Need a good set of roller lifters for my 93 5.0. that doesn’t require removing the heads. Guy at Ford performance said both of theirs require head removal.

It depends on the heads.

I was about to remove my Ford Racing lifters with my TFS170 heads bolted on. I've heard from others with different heads that they were not able to.
