Default Cadillac Racing lifters?

Should the cadillac race lifters look different than normal LQ4 lifters? Just discovered that I have 2 sets of similar looking lifters... There are no differencies and they weight the same also, 122 grams.

There is only about 3 or 4 manufacturers that do lifters. Saying that it is internals that are changed, and the ability for revs. They can look the same and weight the same but could have completely different rev capabilities.

"Now from what I know the both rev to 10K rpm's" Sorry not proof reading. (Thinking solid and writing on hydraulic)

The CTS-V Racing lifters can make HP to 8k I have to find the article give me some time to find it again.

and the Vortech lifters are 99.99 (16) on ebay to the 34.00 per lifter cost ctsV.
