Replacement lifters for a ls1...ls2 or ls6?
What are good replacement lifters for a vette ls1? I think I heard something about ls2 or ls6 lifters? Where can I buy them thats not online like a dealership since I get a discount from my work and what would I ask for, just say ls6 lifters or do I need to say a vehicle with a ls2/ls6 in it?
thanks

we use a lot of the LS7 lifters & have the packages on special incase you need a set! For the money they're hard to beat!

The comp R's are alittle noisy and sensitive to preload adj. I had better luck with stock GM lifters. It all depends on what you are going to do with the engine. Isky are good but expensive. Thats what I'm using on my new build.

This will cause puking of valves tips because the rocker is loose, accelerated valve guide wear, because of the oil pressure some of the valves will not close all the way, damage to the valve seats and lose of HP to include catastrophic failure. These are few of the things the guy who put my H/C package together forgot to tell me and now my Corvette is in pieces in my Garage. Stay away from the Comp "R" lifters unless you have a true professional install them not an inept idiot thinking that because he owns a shop he knows what he is doing.
The LS7 or the CTS V the only 2 lifters you need to know about.

damn! well I have comp "R"s but also have a set of the comp 1.75's in the car. I think I will be tossing in a set of the caddy lifters when I toss in the new cam, and heads. Good info to have. I wonder if mine were setup correct. The car doesn't seem to have any troubles besides being down on power compared to similar setups.
