Lifters

Lifter dropped off at the machine shop.
Looking forward to see what they can do.

Not yet

They are taking a look when they get a chance.

Already doing a few other projects for me.

They are also newly producing a bunch of medical equipment so I am trying not to ask for too many favors at once.

I have, just have not been up there to pick up my new cam tower. Once I do, I will post pictures for you guys here. 10X better MB diesel lifters that weigh less. Note: not a direct fit, 1mm over sized but the mod to the cam tower was cheap, way cheaper than than one OEM lifter. The lifters are about $12 each too, totally rebuildable, and much larger button.

I assume this is the same lifter David F reference above in this thread? Boring the cam tower should be simple enough... I don't know that I can stomach spending $2k for 8 PCNA lifters. (Especially since their INA brethren previously sold for less than a quarter of that.) So, if these lifters prove reliable and non-problematic, I'll be an early adopter. But I'll wait for some real world test-beating before trusting my new motor to them... Does anyone have them in a running motor yet?

Any updates on the over-sized Mercedes lifters?

[gruhsy]

What is the size of the lifter?
Which Mercedes engine?
The internet is terrible when you google larger than 38mm. No one seems to identify lifters by size except the stock size for our cars.

The website link for
pppcenter.com is no longer working.

It now sends you to a spam website

Heads up to everyone.

I measured my lifters today.

I know they are 38mm diameter.

I also measured 32mm height
Inside wall 11.40mm
Button height 0.55mm

Thickness. 32mm - 11.40mm + 0.55mm

Can everyone who can measure to see what you get?

Thanks

Just regular old 8-valve lifters you mean? I can measure those in the morning if so.... What are you trying to figure out?
