Thanks Brent. So when you say the lifters take a pounding, that's only if the clearances aren't maintained to correct limits? If clearances are correct, and 7500 - 10000 mile intervals isn't a deal-breaker, then no other down side?
What precentage of motors do you build that have solid roller lifters?
Cheers,
Glen
