I think these are them http://www.sdparts.com/product/12499...esSetof16.aspx

That's the cheapest I have found them. I'm thinking about getting a set while the motor is apart.

Also, i am doing a hot cam swap. Do i have to get different valve covers, bc of the 1.6 rr? Or will they fit under the stock valve covers?

You really don't need new valve covers for any 1.6 RR's. Not sure about the hotcam, but usually all you have to do is notch the supports under the valve covers.

Now do you have to get different size pushrods if you use the ls7 lifters? I heard the plunger in the ls7 lifters are deeper or something along those lines

You probably won't be happy with solid mounts if it's driven on the street. My friend had them and you'll feel vibration idling and reverse. You will need a solid tranny mount if you get solid motor mounts.

I've read some comments that guys have broken the trans case with solid motor and tranny mounts. I run solid motor mounts and a poly trans mount. Works fine for the last three years.

The LS7 lifter is suppose to be the same height as a stock piece, as I recall it is now the standard lifter replacement from GM for all hyd lifters.

http://web.camaross.com/forums/showt...ght=LS7+lifter

The Cadillacs lifter with ceramic internals is suppose to require a different length pushrod their supposedly rock solid reliable to 9000 rpms

http://web.camaross.com/forums/showt...ght=LS7+lifter



There is more info on this board and CZ if you do a search.

It says use 3-1116 for the right mount in the install guide. So it's ENS-3-1116G or ENS-3-1116R (red or black)
