Hi Martin,

Excuse my mirth, but that is priceless!

Having recently been 'shot down in flames' on who makes who's lifters I didn't want to say what you have just said, so thank you for confirming what I had also heard.

Cheers,

Mark.

They make about 4-5 other brands also.

There are differences though. The material they make their cheaper lifters out of is the same material they use for their off brand versions. The upper level Morel lifters are made out of a much better quality material.

In general, whether it matters or not, you get what you pay for.

Thanks guys for the replies in regards to lifters. I purchased M Bozz's set. I'm excited to go down this solid roller path.

I'm aware of that and was when I initially bought the morels, just curious why 1 has a warranty and one doesn't.

Hi M.

Its called "Marketing" and the brand owners of Lunati obviously believe that they can sell more product by offering a warranty, however, warranty's are usually not worth much more than the paper they are written on.

Cheers,

Mark.

I've got 3/8 x 0.095 from Manton and they don't budge. Reallly no need to go heavier. Its the diameter that makes them strong.

I understand, and didn't mean to "burn" you by making the comment I did. I didn't know if you were aware.
