jk. I lost one to a lifter failure so I am paranoid about it now...get the best ones you can afford, and no oil restrictors. jmo
Not really ... my old lifters I sell are 100% fine when I replace them .. just cheap insurance. One guy still has a set I ran 2 yrs ago took them out after 200 1/4 hits, they are in a street car and work well
I run non pressure fed's also ..
I guess if you keep an eye on the lash you are ok...but they cause too much damage when they break to risk used ones in my opinion. I screwed up a block that I have since found out was worth a lot of money to chevelle guys....December 1969 casting date 454.
I'd never buy used lifters but people want my used stuff for 100.00 by all means they can have them
The one I had break was a Comp Cams lifter...it also ruined the other lifter it was paired with...I put the other 14 on EBAY and told them it was a partial set due to a failure...and I still got $140 for them!! :shock:. I was honest and they bought them anyhow so it's on them if they have trouble...
