Default ls 6.0 lifters

I have a lifter question. Is the crane 144530 lifters a good replacement lifter or is the ls7 lifters better

I know the LS7 lifters are a very proven lifter and cheap. Pretty much the norm for all hydraulic lifter builds. I cannot comment on the Crane lifters though. Good luck.

I'm not sure on those other ones either, but I run the LS7's in my 6.0, and feel that's the better choice for me

LS7 are not that great. I would never run them in anything of mine.

Exactly what I try to tell people. Some just can't be convinced. I see bad lifters multiple times a week, even on engines still under warranty.

If you're not building some crazy, radical engine, just get a set of original Delphi lifters from Skip White Performance.
$90.
These are the the original Roller lifter GM used and had ZERO problems for many years.
