Anyone have problems with their LS7 lifters? Well I decided to buy LS7 lifters to replace the old ones which only had 42K mi. on them but just wanted to replaced them to be on the safe side. Anyway I ordered some from SDPC and when I received them they had nicks, scratches, and they looked worse than the ones that were pulled out of my car. Well I sent those back and they said that they looked perfectly fine and had another set and said that they look the same. I just curious if any had this kind of issues?

I finally got my Caddy lifters and they were a bit scratched up too. There were a few scratches/dents that I could feel with my fingernail. I lightly dremeled them and they should be fine now. The box that they came in from GM was broken open so it could have happened i shipping. I also got my lifters from SDPC. The packaging was horrible in my opinion.

they will come with SOME surface scratches...what you dont want are gouges..deep deep cuts...big difference...mine had small hairline surface scratches, you can run em, you'll be fine...I spin mine to 7k all the time: Soak em in oil a bit first before install so they are ready to go when you fire her up
