There it is.. also follow the link to LNengineerings site to see more pics.

I'm going to get a spare lifter and take videos of it TRYING to be destroyed with a grinder, sawzall,torch and anything else we can find, including a sledge hammer!

I'm spoiled now, no more guesswork and no chances! hell they don't even need a break in!

Those were first installed 3 years ago before the TIV ceramic was available in stock diameter...

Now they are available in stock diameter as well as .002 oversize for refurbishing new cases...

These damn things kick ASS!

That's very impressive. So little wear means fewer rebuilds!!!!!

And virtually no friction! That equals less heat transferred intpo the oil and lower temperatures.

Jake do you find that by this time most cases require machining to fit the overbore lifters?

Almost every case has atleast .002 of wear.. sometimes the .002 lifters drop right into the case!!!
