Opinions or experience with ISKY E-Z roll lifters
 

Anybody using the Isky E-Z roll lifters? I see Bullet advertising same idea

I use the crower bushed lifters .best thing I ever did. This is in a 10 k rpm eng. No power loss. Went 3 seasons on the lifters. And I am just going to replace them out of guilt. No more fear of broken needles wrecking everything.

Mark,

What kind of spring pressure are you running? Also, any brass in the filter from the lifter bushings?

Thanks,

Steve

I have seen alot of sizing issues with those lifters I have had to buy 2 if not 3 sets to make up one set because of sizing issues.

So make sure you measure every lifter.

I also have been using the Crower bushed lifters - can't squawk about them at all, but I only rev it to 8,000 :)

This thread I started was about Crower .903 lifters 3 sets that could not be used.

Crower 842. lifters run right at .841 to small for any GM lifter bore that is .844 which gives you .003 clearance which is to much.

Here it a good video to look over.

I deal with a lot of blocks and check and machine alot of lifters and lifters bores when I machine blocks and have seen about every lifter out there.

Been running Isky EZ Roll X solid bushing .904 roller lifters for the past 3 seasons in my Dart Big M block without issue, seeing 8000 in the lights every pass.

Re: Opinions or experience with ISKY E-Z roll lifters
 

There are alot of threads on Yellow bullet interference to sizing issues.

Had a customer last year I machined a Dart block for his sprint he sent me new bushed ISKY.904 lifters and customer had to get with ISKY to get the sizing issues straightened out.

Its on MY F/B paged if you need to see it !!!

Don't get me wrong ISKY Lifters are great lifters but having to buy 2 or 3 sets to make up one set is a PIA.

There are a lot of engine builders who really don't care about lifter size and just dump the lifter in the lifter bores with out checking clearances.

Now ISKY does sell the Durathon lifter which I have never had to send back or get 2 or 3 sets to make up one set but those lifters are made by Morel and size seems to be very good.

This is the problem when lifters are not fitted.
