Default Comp Cams Lifters

I have been running Comp Cams lifters in my car all summer. Has anyone heard anything about these lifters? I'm doing heads and what not this winter and now would be the time to switch lifters. I a paranoid because of the problems with the 918s. Just want to make sure Comps lifters are up to the task.

I've been running Comp lifters, pushrods, 918 springs, rocker arms, etc. for three years without a problem.

I think your fine using the lifters on your new setup. They're good stuff. Im using comp pushrods and they are quality pieces. Comp cams valvetrain componets are high quality.

Not sure I understand what you did. Sounds like sometime before the summer you took off your heads and just replaced the lifters. And now you are taking the heads off again so you want advice if you should change the lifters again?
