Guess this lifter.... Can anyone guess what kind of lifter this is, 
I will give you a hint, this is the second 400 dollar cam
that has been trashed by one of these lifters in less than a year
And yes they have been adjusted correctly, and not over reved.

DING DING DING!!!! XAON got it!!!
DO NOT BUY THESE SHITTY LIFTERS!
I have read this before, and i thought that the first problem may have been from my error in andjusting the valve train, but now i know they are truly crappy lifters.
I would like to convert to solid roller, but that will require a little more investment than i would like. I will throw a different set of HYD lifters in.
Any recomendations on a good set of HYD lifters?
Thanks
Chris

We have Comp Rs in my brothers car. Chris E. at MTI has had them forever with 3 or so different cams now and never had a problem with any of them. Maybe you got a bad run of them?

I must have been some bad lifters, i have not not heard too many re-assuring coments about Comp-R's though. I would not reccomend running any of the newer sets of Comp-R's!!! Its only one lifter that goes bad every time, its not like its the whole set.
They may need some new quality standards
