Default Quick - Name That Lifter

Need some help identifying the make, model, and manufacturer of this lifter.

The only marking I can find on it is "1G5" or "1C5"

Also, would anyone be so kind as to post up photo's of a stock OEM lifter - thanks

Not a Comp R, not a Morel, I have had both of them and they don't look like that.
There is not much surface on that thing. I would be worried that would cause extreme wear on the aluminum block.

thanks guys

I'm still in the process of searching my next question - but in the mean time - how do I go about inspecting these to make sure they are good?

I was under the impression I should be able to sqeeze the plunger (for lack of better terms).

looking at the scuffs on the sides, I would inspect the lifter bores as well.
If they are over 50K miles then change them.
I recommend Comp 850-16 with cams less than .600 lifts and less or at ~ 230 durations.
