Lifters
« on: June 07 2022, 04:29:01 PM »
It appears as the Elgin l1969s lifters I had planned on are made in Mexico now and I don't see any old stock of the made in USA ones.
Any thoughts on the made in Mexico units or a better lifter to chose for this build.
Also came across this but it clearly states not for the turbo so I don't know what to make of that. Any Thoughts on that?

I would probably go with the lifters from TA Performance as they are supposed to be the good US made lifters...brai n fog at the moment for the name of them LOL  Factory that made all the original lifters up in Washington State or therebouts

A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.
