Default Ultima (Johnson) Lifters - Good? or Bad?

Anyone have any experience running these lifters? I know they are low cost, but so are Ultima engines (relatively) and people seem to do ok with them. Opinions please?

so far they seem to be performing well, much better than the ones they replaced.

If I have to buy lifters, I will get the "B" lifters for most street engines. For our "Big cam motors we like Jims Big axles. I have johnsons in our 120 as that is what was in it when we got it, so far so good. Rivera taper lite pushrods are the bomb for radical cams and springs.
