    HELP!

    We need some .936" lifters for our BBC.

    Brief spec,
    New Century 9.8" deck BBC Solid block
    Bryant 4.250" billet crank
    GRP billet rods 6.385" length
    JE forged pistons 4.375" bore
    Morgan billet heads
    Comp ratio around 11:1 - 11:5.1 depending on gasket used
    Kobelco 14-71 K11 at 20% OD

    Aims for the car, 3.9* at the 1/8th and 6.0 at 1/4 to give idea of application.

    Block has provision for 1.058" lifters but we have it bushed to .937" so need a .936" lifter.

    We are really finding it hard to get responses from vendors, what do people use please????

    ISKY is one, some say can;t use roller with straight 50 weight?

    Morel is another but we simply don't think we have the $$$ to buy them.

    Advice please all, we need to get the old girl back out!

    On here or PM please

    Similar combo. Run the Crower needleless lifters. They have been flawless with over 500 on the seat. About $1200 a set last time I got them.

    I had a set of the Crower needleless lifters for our 481X we hurt a roller after one race. Talked to the crower lifter wizard and he recommended the needle style lifter and even swapped them out at no charge !!!!! We ran crower lifters for 15 plus years in blown and turbo 9500 rpm motors with zero fails....
