Broken Shubeck lifter!! Took out a lot of stuff with it! Not fixable, might be able to save some pieces. Still haven't totally disassembled. Don't know yet if we will continue on with the trip with the pink Challenger. Should know by this afternoon. Patsy Reposted from another thread Mike A114 P/SA __________________ |

Re: Schubeck lifters
We don't need roller lifters in stock. If you want roller lifters build a combination that came with them or go race super stock.

Re: Schubeck lifters
I think I'm at around 4 years with Trend tool steel flat tappets, no failures reported by any customers. Trend has been around for years, the guys at Comp are extremely familiar with them, Tim Cole at Comp is one of the reasons I started with Trend, and I have zero regrets.

Re: Schubeck lifters
I disagree with roller lifters unless your combo came with them. I know we can not go back on some rules but if there was a spring pressure limit that would not require shubeck style lifters we may not have as many problems as this. This is turn would slow some combinations down but in time (lower RPM's) HP would be reduced and we would be better off. Look, the only thing separating Stock from SS (from the 80's-90's) is a intake, pan and and any lift roller cam. We already have the crank, rods, block, pistons, rings, HEADS, rockers and carbs. Stop turning Stock into Super Stock light. I know the New cars are Super modified style engines in Stock but they are in there own classes. Just my opinion.

Since we are On that path, I think we should open up the valvetrain to Titanium valves and retainers. Don't forget clamshells on the camshaft. This is just asking to get out eleminatior merged into superstock. I'm not interested 2k in new valvetrain parts just to keep up. NO THANKS. If you keep breaking stuff, spend money and do some spintron testing. Or buy a new car, and you get all that already.

Re: Schubeck lifters
X2 Why do we allow any valve spring pressure anyway? I doubt that facts would support that it has been cheaper for anyone, reduced the number or parts failures, or made it easier in anyway for racers. It's easier for NHRA Tech guys (maybe) and that's all.

Re: Schubeck lifters
Again I say, I have already sent in the request to CA. Need reinforcement. You gotta wear out Tech in CA and IN and every Division and every SRAC member. I got no flat tappet stuff. I got no dog here, but after very recent identical problems with Sammy Pizzolato and Larry Hill within one month, yall gotta get in the battle.
