A lot of comps are made here locally in the town I live in. I can bascially get them free and wont touch them. All lifter failure I've had in the past all Comps, same with other local racers.

I had a comp lifter break after only 23 passes in my 454....lost the whole motor. cracked the block between the lifter bores. I have the Crane ultra pros now...they look beefy..anyone know who makes them?

The engine I lost was my first motor with a solid roller...I ran the valves that day right before we loaded up...they were all exactly like I had set them except one....guess which one broke. live and learn. Had I more experience that would have been a huge red flag,but I thought nothing of it and just adjusted it. When we got to the track the car was 1 or 2 tenths slower than the week before and got slower every pass(another clue I should have caught) I blamed it on the heat....fifth pass kaboom. :(

Crane Ultra Pros are suppose to be made by morel. Any body tried the new Isky Red Zones without the needle bearings?

PBM sells PBM

Morel sells Morel, but Morel sells to a lot of others also, I know the pro series Lunati's are Morel for sure. PBM same lifter for a lot less $
