Default Re: Lightest solid roller lifter

I like strong and light. I think Crane put large lightening holes in the upper body as an option years ago. Now most designs are of a cutaway nature and are probably as light as you can get. I have had 3 needle bearing type lifter failures in the past so moving to bushed. Not long ago there was talk that more power can be made with the needle version, I don't see it. Bushing should be floating on film of oil if supply and pressure are right.
