Crane lifter question Ok all Im looking to replace my lifters during spring break and Im looking for info on the Crane 144530-16 lifters. Summit has these and another set for like 600+ bucks and let me tell ya those arent an option! Im alos not really interested in LS7 or caddy lifters just if you know about or have used these I would appreciate your impressions. Thanks!
Not sure if you have considered Morels, they are a tad cheaper than the Cranes but more than GM. Not sure if anyone currently has them now though as there was a shortage of them. They are around $500 for a set with much better materials and machining than GM.
Still waiting on my Morel lifters that were ordered in October! They were telling me end of January so we will see!!!

Ive considered morels but no one has them and Im not ready to spend 500 bucks for a set of lifters. Im asking about the 144530-16 crane lifters that are around 250 ish a set from summit. If those are better than the comp 850-16 lifters then Ill probably end up with sthem. Like I if youve used them let me know your impressions.
I'm running the caddy lifters i my 408, with a .612/.615 cam.I think I paid $217 from SDPC. I ran the Comp 850's for about 5 years prior to the caddys. I think the Cranes and Morels have a very tight preload window.
