The only problem with that is for everyone like you who has had good luck, there are probably quite a few who haven't been so lucky, and their $10,000-$15,000 engine was brought down by a set of $100 lifters. 16 lifters costing $100 would make each lifter only $6.25!!! A pretty complicated piece of hydraulic (or solid) equipment for a mighty small amount of $$. That's retail!! Wholesale is probably $3 something each, and the manufacturer has to make a profit, so your trusting your $12,000+ engine to a $1.50-$2.00 part. What amount was left for the neelde bearings, the roller, heat treatment, R&D, if any, etc., etc. I'm glad you've had good luck. But I'd never trust an high performance engine with those kind of parts. Maybe not even a low performance engine. To each his own. But to me, using a $100 set of lifters in an expensive engine is like playing Russian roulette; You hope like Hell you get the luck of the draw.....
