Thread: where to get Ls7 lifters???

So i went to the dealer today thinking i was going to get Ls7 lifters since, one of mine sounds like its starting to collapse. I get there and the guy behind the counter tells be its going to be $600.00 for a set. I laughed and walked out. Any suggestions on where to buy? The comp cam set from intense is almost a quarter the price, i was thinking of just getting those. Looks like my top swap is going to be delayed again, I might as well just start crying now.

I'm thinking Pace and GMPD had them for just over $100/set.

12499225 - Gm Hydraulic Roller Lifter Set- LS1-LS6-Gen III Engines -1997-2006 - 12499225

these are the same as the Ls7's right?

It's my understanding that the lifters were redesigned for the LS7 and they replaced the previous ones. This means that any new lifters for the 3800 or the LSx engines should be the new LS7 lifters unless someone has some old stock sitting on a shelf.

I called them just to be sure. He said the book showed the same part # as the Ls7's. Nice find!!!

WOOT!! new Ls7 lifters for $144 shipped!!

and the guy behind the counter at gm thought i was crazy

that's for a set of 16, the set of 12 should be cheaper...

You would think so...this is a sad world we live in.

um, no, I mean they ARE cheaper last I looked.

ohhh... I wasn't aware they sold a set of 12. I saw the set for the 3800 but I wasn't sure if they were oem
