I'm about 99% sure that this is a Hydraulic lifter but I would like someone else to confirm that it is or isn't.
Thanks, |

it would only be collapsed if it were hydraulic. and you would see were the plunger hand recessed to. even the solid lifetrs are acually made in several pieces to allow for oil to get out the rockers. there is a valve inside and the ciclip holds the guts together. if it was a hydaulic lifter you could with force push the cup down some and it would return from spring pressure inside.

definetly a solid lifter. If it were hydraulic, you would see the retaining clips. Compare that lifter to these:
