Its down like this:
Ceramic is much lighter. The lighter the valvetrain the easier it is on the valve springs (higher RPM is obtainable without valve float)..and the heads will last longer.. because you dont have to run some ungodly valve spring seat pressures. My Dizzle. B |

Those ceramic lifters are tempting....hmmmm, what could I sell to finance those puppies......????
Anyone want to buy my first generation Megasquirt? Already built and ready to go (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) The Web-Cam lifters are 140.00 and the ceramic are 400.00 FYI |

New Roller Lifter Design
Our lifter bores are ~24mm, these new roller lifters need a 1" bore for the sleeve. My concern would be whether or not the rollers will get enough oil support the roller and keep it lubed. The price is 920 for 16 (enough for two engines) anyone want to split a set??? I wonder if they'll sell just one lifter and roller for testing?? |

Ahh yes.. Mr. Lakewood. Hard to beleive he was hydroforming back in the late 70's and we are just now seeing the prices for equipment drop below a million dollars.

I wouldn't worry Mike that the rollers will get enough oil. Remember the cam is below the crank and gets all that oil being flung off the crank. Its not like a OHC motor at all.
The pics are worth drooling over! How much? Geoff |

The ceramics are $430. from LN, but he wants you to ship your case to him for machining, the lifters are .002 oversize.
For us poor Canucks, exchange, case shipping, brokerage, taxes and etc... we're talking about 8 to 900 bucks. Ouch, too much. Sounds cool though. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) Don't rollers add weight to the valve train? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/MDB2.gif) |

QUOTE(kellzey @ Jul 23 2003, 02:25 PM) From Krieger's idiotic link... QUOTE After Germany's capitulation, he was captured and put on trial for the murder of Canadian prisoners-of-war. Yes, if Kurt were still around, maybe he'd take care of another Canadian! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) (Sorry to the other Canadian members on the board that don't seem to have any problems for what we all post and discuss here). I was watching a program about WWII on the Canadian version of the History Channel a few years ago and they had a History Professor there discussing the program and he said matter of factly that more German POWs died in Allied POW camps than Allied Pows died in German POW camps. For many years, there was even a newspaper columnist here, named Doug Collins, who was a British WWII vet and he held some kind of record for most escape attempts from a German POW camp. He had a very positive view of Germans but he was completely racist. Maybe he was contrasting his experience in a German POW camp with that of the British in Japanese POW camps. Kellzey, not everything you were taught or believe is true. |
