    If you do and go with comp. Get the OE ones. The other ones make noises. If you can find a set of low milage stock ones go with those. Since they are the exact same.



    If you'rs are in good condition then there is no need to get new ones.

    I've been considering new stockers, they were apparently redesigned for use with the LS7 and were upgraded in a number of ways. The LS1 guys love them. I'd go that way before going Comp. Cheaper too.

    To answer the real question, though, if you're not having problems with your stock lifters, don't bother.

    Seeing how you already have hydraulic roller lifters, I don't see why you should buy some more.

    no need to buy the comp ones..get a new set of stock ones, which will end up being ls7 lifters.

    Realisticly? Nothing. At a perfomrance stand point anyway. I feel that the stock lifters are more than enough than we need. The only reason he bought them is.... Well i'll let him tell ya LOL

    Yeah, nothing realistically to be gained in most of our setups. If you need to replace the lifters for some reason, though, they make a lot more sense than paying more for Comp.

    You...I wonder why I don't hate you yet

    It is because of my right foot...that and the fact I knew I had a bad lifter and had to replace it BUUUUUUUUUUUT...it shot craps before I could fix it because I just HAD to drive it...oh well...now I got another motor that don't work and it sits...don't care...gonna trade it in for a T/A or Terminator...FWD sucks.

    Nope...no performance. I only did it because they were decently cheap, I now have a few spares if I ever need them and they work just as good if not better than stockers and aren't as clattery as the Comp ones. Yeah...and cheaper too
