Default Another ls7 lifter thread

I need new lifters and trays for my rebuild. But there seems to be miles of miss information. Is there any issue I should worry about before I buy a set from the guys that buy them bulk? I dont need a gm sticker. I understand bulk pricing, but many people seem to be skeptical.

There's a lot of shady stuff that goes on with online part sales. I would buy from a reputable LS1Tech sponsor like BTR or WS6Store or ATK or LPE etc to make sure you really get a GM LS7 spec lifter if that's what your in the market for purchasing. Its OK to buy bulk if your confidence is justified in the source.

I just bought some from Michigan Motorsports. I hope they’re the real deal. So much bs out there it’s hard to know what’s real.

I doubt they are if that's who you bought in from. I know for a fact that their rocker arms aren't oem.
