Anyone bought delphi lifters from atk?

Ordered some delphi lifters and trays from atk. Shipping notice from ups shows its coming from LKQ? Anyone got any insight to this? First time ordering from them so just wanted to make sure they check out. Thanks!

thanks for clearing that up for me👍 Try to stick with buying from site sponsors but communication with them has been mediocre at best. Thanks again!

LKQ has been growing its empire by leaps and bounds, buying up various salvage yards and other automotive-related reman and recycle businesses.
In many cases, things get streamlined in a good way with more efficiency and good customer service.

Thanks for the purchase! We are the largest supplier of LS7/Delphi lifters in the industry. LKQ is our parent company and as mentioned they are a power house acquiring company's that align with our interests They have been very good to us and the other company acquisitions I have been apart of. Couldn't have been a better fit.
