This engine is a non roller right?

if it doesnt have the spider arms between the lifters it means its a non roller right.

how would i tell if an engine has been converted to a roller with conversion lifters

right, that is a non-roller. Not only is it missing the spider tray and dog bones, there are no bosses to even drill and tap to install them. You can tell it has not been converted to roller because conversion roller lifters have a link bar between them, so both the lifters for a given cylinder cannot be seperated. The link bar prevents them from rotating and wiping out the cam.
