Exclamation Re: Paul ditchers looking for lifters

Paul, whatever you do, do not buy Smith Lifters! They will fail and ruin your engine. Tool steel lifters work well for my application. Do some research and I think you will be better off not using Smith lifters. I have 14 of them for a Chevrolet 302. Ticking time bomb!

x2 for the tool steel lifters. The ceramic faced lifters were ok when there was nothing else available but now that there are tool steel lifters that can handle a lot of spring pressure I wouldn't use anything else. Like John said, a ticking time bomb, and when one goes the short block is gone. PPPC and Trend are good examples of tool steel lifters. Not meaning to bash the Smith/Schubeck style lifters, just my .02.

Chevy lifters have a different oil band than Pontiac/Olds lifters.

Agree, get the Sherman lifters.
