A comment was made about lifter replacement when I was asking about rebuilding the top end [pistons, cylinders and heads]. I was looking at the Pelican site and it says not to replace the lifters if you are not replacing the cam. It will cause premature wear...true?

Ceramics are indestructible and have a Rockwell hardness of 90. You can run them with any cam, even used and be fine..

Not true with ANY otherlifters. I have swapped them out with good luck in the old days, but these days I would not even consider it!
