Default Can you identify these lifters?
Bought some used parts from a friend...heads, cam, etc...and I ended up with these lifters. Anybody know what they are? They're showing some wear unlike the stockers that were in my motor. Should I just reuse my stockers? Are these better?

They are not hydraulic, they are a solid roller lifter Has a solid valvetrain I assume.

Do you have a solid roller cam? Do you plan on spinning past 8,000 rpms?

i am not sure about this.
i just read your friend was running these lifters with the GM Hot Cam. are you sure?
did he know what car you are going to put this in?

i think we are fine with having all roller components.
the prior post asked if you have a solid roller cam. if your friend used these lifters with the cam, then maybe that cam is a solid roller cam. wouldn't you think?

i am just posting questions and thoughts i would have if i were you.
it seems you might be better off with a different package. just from what i have just read. JMHO.

careful with what you choose/get for your car, bro.

Yea...somethings wrong. That is a small cam, and those are solid lifters(usually intended for a race motor, or very high reving motor)

Run stock lifters. The ones you have a pic of are NOT stock lifters.
