Re: Schubek Lifters
Smith Machine out of Cedar City, Utah now is the builder of these lifters. My understanding is he is the old shop foreman when they were in vegas. Better buy a bunch because the quality control is even worse than before......First set two broken plungers and one bottom that came loose in first set I bought in first five runs!!!

Re: Schubek Lifters
Two engines, never put them in my car again! Use the steel billet or the ones with EDM and ramp up the spring pressure.

Re: Schubek Lifters
So have you had problems with the Schubeck or the Smith lifters?

Re: Schubek Lifters
I had Schubeck and I'm not say that they aren't a good product,but I still wouldn't take a chance on anything like them any longer. If you even chip one, get ready to take the motor out , buy new pistons and also reboring the block. Never mind all the other small parts you have to replace. (oil pump, camshaft, bearings, and on and on.)
