i have had 4 of them break , stay away from them

Re: Schubek Lifters
 

4 From which manufacturer, Schubeck or Smith?

Re: Schubek Lifters
 

I've been running/using my Schubek lifters for quite a few years now,never a problem.

Re: Schubek Lifters
 

I had my first Schubeck failure using the exotic all composite body. It shattered. Had to replace all the bearings and rings. I lost a second engine to a puck coming off. Broke the camshaft and took out two rods and pistons. That was the end of that experiment.
Great idea as long as everything works as advertised. But if it doesn't...

Re: Schubek Lifters
 

If the shubecks and new shubecks (Smith) aren't viable options what hydraulic SBC lifters you guys recommend ?

Re: Schubek Lifters
 

schubecks purchased in 2004

Re: Schubek Lifters
 

Yeah, what Michael said.......

Where do you get the billet steel lifters?

Re: Schubek Lifters
 

There were many problems with the Schubeck lifters. I've sold about 50 sets of the Smith lifters with zero failures to date. I would like to hear of any problems with the Smith lifters.

Re: Schubek Lifters
 

Tool steel lifters are sold by Ferrea, Performance Research Incorporated, and Precision Performance Products.

Re: Schubek Lifters
